Description

Rich in protein, omega 3 and essential minerals, it promotes digestion, prevents cardiovascular disease and is anti-inflammatory. Chia (Salvia hispanica) is a species of sage native to Mexico and Guatemala that gave its name to the Mexican state of Chiapas (waters / river of chia). This plant was cultivated by the Aztecs and Mayas who already knew the peculiarities of this plant. Chia seeds were then the third source of plant food in their diet after corn and bean varieties. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3 essential fatty acids (15-17% in the form of alpha-linolenic acid - ALA). 5 g of chia seeds cover 45% of the NRN (daily nutritional guidelines) in omega-3. They have a high dietary fibre content which gives them a great satiating power when hydrated. Indeed, their richness in mucilage makes them increase considerably in volume, to form a gel, when immersed in water. Chia seeds are excellent for sportsmen and women because of the protein they contain (about 22 g per 100 g). Finally, chia seeds do not contain gluten or cholesterol.

Pharmaceutical Advice

Omega-3 fatty acids are a type of polyunsaturated fat that helps regulate triglyceride and cholesterol blood levels. However, these fats, which help to maintain cardiovascular health, are not produced by the body. This is why it is important to include foods rich in Omega 3 in your diet, such as fish and shellfish, seeds or algae. Without ever exceeding the recommended dose, you can also opt for dietary supplements that provide these beneficial fatty acids.

The most common fatty acids are EPA and DHA (from marine sources) and ALA (from plant sources), which help regulate blood pressure. They also help to reduce the risk of developing irregular heartbeats or arrhythmias. Omega-3's main benefits are therefore related to cardiovascular health and, as they are part of the cell membranes, they also help to maintain the nervous system function in good condition. Remember that dietary supplements should never replace a healthy, balanced diet.
