Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are the edible seeds of Salvia Hispanic, a flowering plant in the mint family native to Central America, or of the related Salvia columbariae of the southwestern United States and Mexico. Chia seeds are oval and gray with black and white spots, having a diameter of around 1 millimeter. Chia seeds are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants, iron, and calcium. Chia seeds contain nearly 5 grams of fiber per tablespoon, and their high levels of omega-3 fatty acids and alpha-linoleic acid may be useful for weight loss. The seed can also be consumed as a gel when mixed with water. This causes it to digest more slowly in the body, potentially preventing hunger for a longer period.
