NOW Real Food® White Chia Seeds are a tasty treat with a mild flavour that can be eaten on their own or added to many of your favourite recipes. They’re also an excellent topping for salads, yogurts, puddings, and more. While most of us know Chia from the popular and peculiar Chia Pets, Chia is far more than a humourous ornamental plant. Chia (Salvia hispanica) is one of the best-known plant sources of healthy Omega-3 fatty acids. Chia Seeds are also an excellent source of fibre and a good source of calcium.
Because you are what you eat, NOW Real Food® has been committed to providing delicious, healthy, natural and organic foods since 1968. We’re independent, family owned, and proud of it. Keep it natural. Keep it real.
Enjoy NOW® whole chia seed by sprinkling it over salads, cereals, yogurt or your favourite entrées. Whole chia seed may be added to lemon water or fruit juice to make a traditional Mexican drink known as chia fresca (1.5 - 2 tsp chia per cup of liquid).
Refrigeration after opening is recommended to mainitain freshness.
