About This Product

Tiny but mighty, chia seeds have long been a staple in the health food community. Low in calories but rich in fibre, plant-based protein, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, iron, calcium, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus, this tiny seed is truly a powerhouse of essential nutrients. This Mayan superfood lives up to its name (chia being an ancient Mayan word for ‘strength’), as it gives you a boost of energy and provides a balanced ratio of nutrition to help you power through your day. Thanks to its high fibre content, it also helps to keep you satiated for a longer period of time and prevents sudden spikes/drops in blood sugar levels, a property that may have contributed to its reputation as being a weight loss aid.
Signature Market’s Organic Chia Seeds deliver these nutritious seeds to you with the guarantee that its nutrients are as natural as nature intended. Our Organic Chia Seeds are non-GMO, non-irradiated and produced entirely without pesticides so you can rest assured that you’re only getting the best nature has to offer.
