Chia Seeds FAQs
What are chia seeds and where do they come from?
Chia seeds are tiny, oval-shaped seeds that come from the Salvia hispanica plant, which is native to Mexico and Central America. They have been consumed for centuries and were a staple in the diets of the Aztecs and Mayans.
What do chia seeds taste like?
Mild-flavored and miniscule, chia seeds are almost more of a texture than a flavor; their glossy shells add a slight pop to smoothies, bowls, oatmeal, salads and more! If we had to give them a flavor profile, we’d describe it as a mild nutty flavor with just a touch of earthiness.
What are the nutritional benefits of Chia seeds?
Chia seeds are packed with nutritional value, including omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, protein, antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. They are particularly known for their high omega-3 content, which is essential for heart and brain health.
Is it okay to eat chia seeds everyday?
Absolutely! Incorporating them into your daily routine can provide a consistent source of these nutrients, supporting your overall health and well-being. However, it's essential to consume chia seeds in moderation, as part of a balanced diet. Due to their high fiber content, excessive consumption without adequate water intake may lead to digestive discomfort. Start with a reasonable portion size, such as one to two tablespoons per day, and adjust as needed to suit your individual preferences and dietary requirements.
What is a chia egg?
Chia seeds contain a thin exterior hull that is hydrophilic, meaning it binds with water. When soaked in liquid, chia seeds’ hulls expand and form a gelatinous substance. This natural gel adds structure to baked goods, making these tiny seeds a perfect vegan egg substitute! To make a chia egg, simply mix 1 tablespoon of chia seeds with 3 tablespoons of water, stir, and set aside for 10-15 minutes for the water to absorb.
How much omega 3 is in your Chia Seeds?
Each 2 Tbsp. serving of our Chia Powder contains a whopping 2254mg of omega-3 fatty acids!
Are your Chia Seeds pasteurized or irradiated?
Our chia seeds are certified organic and are never pasteurized or irradiated (fun fact: irradiation is illegal with organic foods). We use third party, independent labs to test every batch of our superfoods for bacteria, yeast, and other pathogens, and are absolutely confident in their quality and safety.
