Organic Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are a health nut's staple due to their versatility, nutrient content & bang for their buck. These tiny little seeds can be eaten raw, but are mostly soaked in water or an alternate milk, which makes them swell to a gel-like consistency. This makes them a great thickening agent or egg replacement in some instances. They can be used whole or ground up and can be added to nearly anything.

HEALTH BENEFITS

Chia seeds are well known for their high content of Omega-3 Fatty acids, protein and dietary fibre.

Chia seeds also contain:

Manganese, calcium, and phosphorus.
