## Description

Chia is a plant of the genus Salvia in the Mint family. It originated in the central Valley of Mexico. It was largely cultivated by the Aztecs in pre-Columbian times as one of five major plant sources of food. Chia is grown commercially for its seed, a food that is very rich in omega-3 fatty acids, since it is the vegetable source with the most omega-3 content, specifically α-linolenic acid (ALA). It also adds antioxidants and a variety of vitamins, minerals and fiber. For all these health related benefits, Chia is in the process of application before the EU authorities to be considered as a novel food. Chia sprouts are used in a similar manner as alfalfa sprouts in salads, sandwiches and other dishes. Chia sprouts are sometimes grown on porous clay figurines which has led to the popular (U.S.) cultural icon of the Chia Pet. Use: Like many organic spices that are derived from seeds, the seeds of salva hispanica can be eaten raw like sunflower seeds and nuts; they can also be ground into a flour and made into cakes, as is still done in Mexico. Chia fresca is a healthful drink made by soaking the seeds in water or fruit juice. They can also be used in the same way as organic spices in baking, by sprinkling them on bread, cakes, cookies and biscuits. The statements regarding these products have not been evaluated by the FDA. These products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
