Chia powder

Chia seeds are rich in flavonols, a family of antioxidants, chlorogenic acids and caffeic acid. They are rich in protein and fibre. They are also very rich in lipids, with a high proportion of omega-3 acids and an omega-3 to omega-6 ratio. Chia seeds are a good source of calcium and phosphorus, and a very good source of dietary fibre and manganese. Chia has good antioxidant properties thanks to its polyphenols (chlorogenic and caffeic acids and flavonols). These various characteristics make it ideal as a dietary supplement to help improve intestinal transit, lower blood pressure, prevent osteoporosis and improve protein assimilation.
