Chia Seeds originated in Central and South America where the ancient Mayan and Aztec cultures valued and used them as an important food staple. ‘Chia’ in the Mayan language means ‘strength’, and these healthy seeds were even employed as a currency. Today they are gaining popularity for their rich content of protein, dietary fiber and many minerals. Chia Seeds are also rich in natural oils - most notably they are one of the foods with highest Omega 3 fatty acid content.
