Chia is a very powerful anti-inflammatory.

Chia is rich in antioxidants which protect its delicate essential fatty acids from oxidation, natural compounds that help protect the body from the effects of free radicals, unstable molecules that attack cells. Chia seeds further promote cellular health by keeping cells nourished and hydrated

Chia has 5 times more calcium than milk and the calcium  in chia is more easily absorbed by the body due to the traces of boron which is vital for bone health.

Chia has 20 to 23% protein content and is a complete protein containing all the essential amino acids more than that found in traditional cereals such as wheat (13.7%), corn (9.4%), rice (6.5%), oatmeal (16.9%) and barley (12.5%)

Also Chia’s protein is gluten-free. Making it suitable for those with Celiac disease as it is completely gluten free. Chia seeds have a high fibre content making it effective in treating constipation especially that associated with the side affects of medication.

Chia seeds are highly hydrophilic with the ability to hold about ten to fourteen times their weight in water. This ability can prolong hydration and retain electrolytes in body fluids especially during exertion or exercise. These hydrating properties also prevent muscle fatigue during exercise and aid muscle recover after exercise (Hence the “RUNNING FOOD” Aztec name.)
