Truefarm Organic Chia Seeds, 250 g | Deltla Webmanagement

Description

Chia seeds come from the Salvia Hispanica plant, native to southern Mexico and Guatemala but grown here in India too. The seeds may be small but they pack a punch when it comes to nutrition. Whilst chia is high in manganese and phosphorous as well as a source if copper Truefarm chia seeds contain all the essential amino acids and are thus a complete protein, so are useful for vegetarians and vegans alike, as well as a very good amount of fibre too, some 37g per 100g. But it's the beneficial fat content that's really notable about chia as they are an especially rich source of alpha-linolenic acid (ala), a member of the omega 3 essential fat family and a vegetarian version of the fats found in oily fish. Ala can help reduce overall cholesterol levels as well as protect it against oxidation. \Truefarm Chia has a milder flavour when mixed with food, and they can be sprinkled on salads, soups, into yoghurts and smoothie or on frozen yoghurt. Aside from the nutritional contents, chia adds a satisfying crunch, which is welcome when eating something that might otherwise have little texture.
