• Smoothies: Add a tablespoon of raw milled chia seeds to your favorite smoothie for extra fiber, omega-3s, and natural thickness.

• Oatmeal & Porridge: Stir into hot or overnight oats to create a creamy, satisfying texture.
• Yogurt or Bowls: Sprinkle milled chia over yogurt, fruit bowls, or cereal for added crunch.

Nutritional benefits

• Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Chia seeds are one of the richest plant-based sources of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), with about 17.8g per 100g (USDA FoodData Central). ALA contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels (Regulation 432/2012). The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 2g of ALA, which is about 11g of chia seeds.
• Fibre: Chia seeds contain 34.4g of dietary fibre per 100g (USDA FoodData Central).
• Calcium and Magnesium: Chia seeds contain 631mg of calcium and 335mg of magnesium per 100g (USDA FoodData Central). Calcium contributes to normal blood clotting and to normal energy-yielding metabolism. Magnesium contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue (Regulation 432/2012).
