Superdiet Organic Chia Seeds - 200 G
SUPERDIET Chia seeds are naturally rich in Omega 3 (alpha-linolenic acid intake: 1.7 per daily portion), rich in fiber and a source of vegetable protein. This small blue-grey, black or sometimes white seed is the size of flax or sesame seeds. It comes from a herbaceous plant of the same family as mint or sage (Lamiaceae). Originally from Mexico and Guatemala, it was the basis of the pre-Columbian diet of the Mayas and the Aztecs. It was considered an essential food. They valued this seed to the point of making offerings of it to their gods. The Chia seed is also one of the main plant sources of Omega 3, essential fatty acids that our body needs but cannot produce on its own. SUPERDIET Chia seeds are grown according to the principles of organic farming regulations. They are grown in the open air and then harvested, sorted and cleaned.
