Chia Seeds (Unsalted)
Chia Seeds (Unsalted)s are tiny seeds native to Central America that are commonly used in smoothies, puddings, baked goods and as an egg replacement in vegan recipes; they are prized for their neutral flavor and ability to thicken liquids. Per 100 g they deliver 34.4g of fiber, which makes them excellent for digestive health and for adding bulk to meals without many carbohydrates from sugar. They are also a plant source of omega‑3 fats (alpha‑linolenic acid), provide a complete-set protein profile for a seed, and supply minerals such as magnesium and manganese; additionally they contain polyphenols that act as antioxidants, contributing to their reputation as a nutrient-dense pantry staple.
