Health Benefits of Chia Seeds

Chia is the Mayan word that literally translates to “strength.” Chia seeds contain loads of energy to keep you going through the day. Just 2 tbsp of chia seeds contain:

- 5x more calcium than dairy milk

- 100% more omega 3 fatty acids than fish

- 3x more iron than spinach

- 2x the antioxidants of blueberries

- 32% of the RDI of magnesium

Aside from that, chia seeds are high in nutrients & low in calorie, they contain loads of antioxidants & quality protein! These powerful seeds help protect against heart disease and chronic inflammation.

Incorporating them into your diet is really easy as they don’t taste like anything. Throw them in your smoothies or juice, add them to oatmeal or your favorite sauces...the options are limitless!

Adding healthy fat such as almond butter not only adds extra calories, creaminess but a delicious nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with fruit & granola!
