Facts about Chia Seed:
- Chia is an ancient edible seed of the plant Salvia hispanica, a member of the mint family. The seed was used as a survival food for the Mayans and as a medicine for the Aztecs. It is native to South America.
- Chia is a gelatinous seed, which means it absorbs water and forms into a gel. This property keeps you hydrated longer because the digestive process of breaking down carbohydrates into sugar is slowed down by it’s gel state.
- Chia has a high amount of protein (20%), dietary fiber (25%), essential fat (34%), antioxidants, and trace minerals to provide you with loads of energy.
- Chia has 3x more omega-3 fatty acids than flax seed; unlike flax, chia doesn’t have to be ground up for the nutrients to be absorbed in the body.
- Chia seed is easy to digest, making it a great choice for people with a sensitive stomach. Read more about chia as a backpacking superfood.
