7 Good Reasons To Start Eating Chia Seeds

7 Good Reasons to Start Eating Chia Seeds
  1. Help weight loss. Chia seeds are popular for weight loss. They reduce food cravings by preventing some of the food that you eat from getting absorbed into your system. This blockage of calorie absorption makes them a great diet helper.
  2. Feel fuller faster: They can also help your diet by making you feel full. This is because they absorb 10 times their weight in water, forming a bulky gel.
  3. Hydration for athletes: They are also great for athletes because the "chia gel" can hydrate the body.
  4. Reduce your blood pressure: There's evidence to suggest they can reduce blood pressure.
  5. Omega-3: They are the richest plant source of Omega-3 (the vital fats that protect against inflammation—such as arthritis—and heart disease). In fact, they contain more Omega-3 than salmon!
  6. Benefits for diabetes: Because chia seeds slow down how fast our bodies convert carbohydrates into simple sugars, studies indicate they can control blood sugar. This leads scientists to believe chia seeds may have great benefits for diabetics.
  7. They are easier to digest than flax seeds, and don't need to be ground up.

  • They make an ideal addition to baked goods including breads, cakes and biscuits.

Thank you for keeping your prices reasonable and your delivery very prompt. The Chia seeds arrived in great time and in very good shape. Thanks for being a good ole American Company.
Don, Hayes, VA
I own a bakery in Superior Wi. and I do gluten free breads besides my regular breads. I found out from a friend that Chia added to gluten free breads makes a great product. I brought some of my gluten free bree bread with Chia in it to a support group meeting and the people were amazed at the soft texture of the bread. The Chia also adds fiber and anti-oxidants that I never could have gotten without this wonderful product. I'm the only gluten free bakery in the area using this. Thanks for this wonderful product.
Dale, Superior, WI
I placed my first order with your company after checking other online sources as well as my local health food store. Your prices were reasonable and I felt I was still getting a quality product. I placed my order at 3 pm on Thursday and my chia seeds were at my door by 1 pm on Friday. Awesome service.
Arlene, Portsmouth, RI
The nuts came today!! All are honestly better than I expected. The macadamia nuts were awesome and didn't have that rancid oil taste to them that even the health food stores have. I loved the raw whole cacao beans-never had one before and loved the outer, delicate shell. The raw cacao nibs were excellent as well and I make a smoothie with the Chia seeds. Sooo, I'm set and lovin it! Thanks so much. I'm looking forward to the extra antioxidant benefits from everything I ordered.
Stacy, Bonita, CA
I just ordered three products which are very difficult for me to find: pitted cooking dates, bulk sesame seeds, chia seeds. You're the best!
