I LOVE to research #SuperFoods and find New and Creative Ways to add them to our daily diet. Chia Seeds have always been a Mistry to me so I did a little research on the benefits of Chia Seeds and wanted to share what I learned.

* Do you use Chia Seeds in your diet? *

Here are just 5 of the reasons you should!
1 -Combat Diabetes
Chia is being studied as a possible natural treatment for type-2 diabetes because it helps slow down digestion. The seeds develop a coating when exposed to liquids that can also prevent blood sugar spikes.

2 -Get More Fiber
A one-ounce serving of chia has 11 grams of dietary fiber
3 -Calcium
A serving of chia seeds has 18% of the recommended daily intake for calcium.. Strong teeth and bones!
4 -Pack In The Protein
Chia seeds are a great source of protein and don’t have any cholesterol. One serving of these super seeds has 4.4 grams of protein.
5 -Improve Heart Health
Chia seeds have been shown to improve blood pressure in, and may also increase healthy cholesterol while lowering the bad.
