Chia seeds (Salvia hispanica L.) Lab-proven Quality and Purity

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) also known as Mexican salvia, Chia Sprout, Germe de Chia, Graine de Chia, Graine de Salba, Huile de Chia, Pinole, Salba, Salba Grain, Szalwia hiszpanska. Chia Seeds are a small but mighty superfood that have been used by the native tribes of South America for millennia. Packing a powerful nutritional punch, they support digestive health, bone health, brain health and boost energy levels. The high antioxidant content of these seeds protects their sensitive omega fats, and almost all of the carbohydrate content is in the form of fibre. 

Chia seeds packed with protein, containing all 9 of the essential amino acids and high in dietary fibre - this powder is a great addition to a pre or post workout smoothie.

High in B complex vitamins; B1, B3 and biotin (B7), these are all essential vitamins in the conversion of macronutrients into fuel to power the cells of your body and play a vital role in the protection of the central nervous system, with biotin in particular utilising glucose and fats for energy within the nervous system. High impact workouts can put extra stress on the nervous system – the presence of these important B vitamins in this protein powder helps to alleviate this stress and protect the nervous system during workouts.

Calcium, Phosphorus and Magnesium are also abundant in this nutrient dense powder – essential to bone health, these three compounds work together to lay the foundation of a strong skeletal structure, harden and maintain bone density and with roughly half of the body’s magnesium stored in the bones, the importance of enough of this important mineral in bone health is paramount.
