Nutribel Raw Organic Chia Seeds

Chia seed raw organic
Chia seeds come from a mint-like plant that originates in Mexico and Guatemala. In the past, this must have been a very important crop for the Aztecs. Chia seeds are very small but excellent for health. They are primarily known for their rich supply of Omega-3 fatty acids – very important for keeping your body in good health. Chia seeds are also rich in proteins, minerals such as calcium, manganese, and phosphorus, and fiber. They can help with dieting. The numerous fibers and healthy elements provide a feeling of fullness. And then there are the plant-based proteins that we find in them. To maximize the health benefits of chia seeds, it is best not to cook them. How to prepare (whole seeds or ground): scoop one or two tablespoons of chia seeds into a cup, add water until it is 3-5 cm above the seeds, and let them sit for a few hours or overnight.
Chia seeds absorb water, double in size, and cause the mixture to gel naturally. Eat it as is.
