The Benefits of Chia Seeds:
CHIA SEEDS HAVE PLENTY OF FIBER. Nearly all of the carbohydrates in chia seeds is fiber, which the body doesn’t absorb. One tablespoon of chia seeds has 5 grams of fiber (versus .2 grams in the same amount of brown rice), which makes up about 20% of the recommended daily intake. Fiber is very good for your digestive system. And because chia seeds absorb water, they can expand in your stomach, possibly making you feel fuller.
CHIA SEEDS CONTAIN BONE-STRENGTHENING MINERALS. Chia seeds contain many bone-strengthening minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, and protein in high concentrations. One tablespoon of chia seeds contains more calcium than a glass of milk! Chia seeds are thus a great option for those who don’t like or can’t consume dairy products.
CHIA SEEDS ARE A COMPLETE PROTEIN. Unlike most plant proteins, chia seeds have all the essential amino acids, making them a source of complete protein. Of course you can’t make a meal out of chia seeds but you can add it to a smoothie or make a soy milk chia seed pudding for some extra protein.
CHIA SEEDS HAVE HEART-HEALTHY OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS. Gram for gram, chia seeds amazingly have more omega-3 fatty acids than salmon. Omega-3 fatty acids can help protect you against heart disease.
