Chia Seeds - Black Organic 200g

Black chia seeds are tiny, nutrient-dense oval seeds from the Salvia hispanica plant that form a nourishing, gel-like consistency when mixed with liquids A 200g pouch of certified organic black chia seeds (Salvia hispanica), cleaned and packed for everyday use. They have a mild, nutty and near-neutral taste, so they disappear into porridge, yogurt, smoothies, overnight oats, baking and water. They are naturally rich in omega-3 ALA, fibre and plant protein, and a simple way to add texture and staying power to meals you already eat and our resealable pouch keeps the seeds dry and fresh. Did you know.... * One tablespoon supplies roughly 2–3 g of plant omega-3 ALA, which supports heart health. * You get around 4–5 g of fibre per tablespoon — mostly soluble — which feeds gut bacteria and helps keep you regular. Add it gradually and drink enough water to avoid bloating. * The seeds absorb many times their weight in liquid and form a gel, which slows digestion and can take the edge off mid-morning hunger. * You also get about 2g of protein plus calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and iron per tablespoon — useful in vegetarian and vegan diets. * Stirring 1 tbsp into 300mls warm water with a squeeze of fresh lemon provides a fibre-rich hydration boost that supports digestion, promotes fullness, and delivers antioxidants How to use: 1 tbsp (about 12 g) stirred into at least 200 ml water or liquid, left 5-10 minutes until it forms a gel. Drink it, or stir the gel into yogurt, porridge or a smoothie. Always take it with plenty of liquid.
