About Chai seed
Chia seeds, native to Central and South America, are tiny black seeds derived from the Salvia hispanica plant. Historically consumed by the Aztecs and Mayans for their energy-boosting properties, chia seeds have gained modern recognition as a nutritional powerhouse. Rich in fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus, they support heart health, digestion, and bone strength. These seeds also contain antioxidants that help combat oxidative stress in the body. Chia seeds are versatile, expanding in water to form a gel-like texture, making them ideal for puddings, smoothies, or as a vegan egg substitute. However, consumption in excess may lead to gastrointestinal discomfort due to their high fiber content. Balancing their intake is key to reaping their benefits without drawbacks. Chia seeds are a wholesome addition to various diets, blending effortlessly into both sweet and savory dishes.
