Chia Seeds, Organic
From farms that use best practices and time-honored tradition. High fiber. Gluten free. Low glycemic index. Rich in omega 3s. Connected by Nature. USDA organic. Non GMO Project verified. nongmoproject.org. truRoots Organic Chia Seeds bring the wisdom of a traditional superfood to the modern kitchen. Ancient Mayan and Aztec cultures treasured the tiny seeds. Their belief that chia, which comes from the Mayan word for strength, embodied extraordinary powers has been confirmed by modern science. Chia seeds, a member of the mint family, are bursting with omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids, fiber, and B vitamins, and contain protein and calcium. To the Mayans and Aztecs, chia seeds were an endurance food. Today, research has also revealed their role in the regulation of blood sugar and blood pressure. truRoots Organic Chia Seeds have a mild flavor and are easy to add to your meals. Sprinkle them in salads, cereals, and yogurt. Cook them into stews, soups, breads, muffins, and desserts. Soaked in water, they plump into playful jelly rounds that make a fun refreshing drink or easy raw pudding. truRoots Organic Chia Seeds are naturally nutritious and a timeless culinary adventure.
