Breakfast superstar, fabulous vegan baking tool… the list of chia’s nutritional benefits is long, and its reputation that precedes it. It’s a naturally gluten-free food, a great plant source of omega-3 fatty acids, a source of protein, fibre, antioxidants and minerals. It’s easy to integrate chia to your Nutrition Plan and take advantage of the wholesome benefits it provides.

One serving (2 tbsp) of chia meets 230% to 350% of your daily plant-based omega-3 (ALA). Since the body isn’t capable of building this type of fatty acid, which is essential for brain function, it’s important to get a good quantity of it in your Nutrition Plan. Chia seeds are a good source of healthy fats and a quarter of this is ALA fatty acids.
