Organic Chia Seeds, 1kg, Dragon Superfoods

Chia seeds(Salvia Hispanica) were a traditional food in the daily lives of the Mayans and Aztecs thousands of years ago. A "mandatory" food for their warriors, messengers, during long treks and journeys. Chia seeds are also gaining popularity as "running food." This is due to the energy boost they provide to the body. Nowadays, they are one of the most popular superfoods.

Chia seeds are valued as a food, a source of Omega-3, protein, and fiber. They are preferred by vegetarians due to the plant-based protein combined with fatty acids. These small seeds contain a significant amount of fiber, which is one of the reasons for their beneficial effect on the normal function of the digestive system. Their property to be hygroscopic and naturally gel the liquid they are soaked in contributes to this effect. The jelly-like consistency is gentle on the stomach, does not cause irritation, and soothes the mucous membranes, while also stimulating peristalsis.

Chia seeds are as small as sesame seeds but round in shape. The most common variety in Europe has black seeds, but there is also white chia.
