Description

About Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are tiny, oval seeds from the Salvia hispanica plant, native to Central America. Despite their small size, chia seeds are one of the most nutrient-dense foods on the planet. When soaked in liquid, they absorb up to 12 times their weight, forming a gel-like consistency that makes them incredibly versatile in cooking and baking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do chia seeds need to be soaked?

How many chia seeds should I eat daily?
1–2 tablespoons (15–30g) per day is a commonly recommended amount. Always drink plenty of water when consuming chia seeds.

Are chia seeds good for weight loss?
Chia seeds are high in fibre and protein, both of which promote satiety. They can be a helpful addition to a weight management diet.

Can children eat chia seeds?
Yes, chia seeds are safe for children. Add them to smoothies, puddings, or mix into pancake batter for a nutrition boost.
