The Chia seed or "Salvia hispanica" actually comes from the mint family and is the Mayan word for "strength." Chia seed use dates as far back as the Mayan, Aztec and Incan times when chia seeds were used right alongside corn as a staple of the diet. Chia seeds are very similar to flax seeds in that they carry an enormous amount of fiber, vitamins and minerals. The main difference however that gives a slight advantage to the organic chia seed is that its antioxidants create a more stable healthy fat. Basically what this means in layman's terms is that its a better form of omega 3's, 6's and 9's to have in your diet. Organic chia seeds are a phenomenal way to add superfoods into your baking and everyday uses and provide an amazing amount of nutritional benefit for those who do.
