Chia Seed (Salvia hispanica) is a nutrient-dense edible seed derived from a flowering plant in the mint family, originally cultivated by the Aztecs and Mayans. In recent years, it has reclaimed global popularity as a superfood thanks to its exceptional nutritional profile and versatile culinary applications. Naturally gluten-free and vegan, chia is one of the richest plant-based sources of omega-3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, and complete protein.
These small, oval-shaped black or greyish seeds absorb up to 10–12 times their weight in water, forming a gel-like texture. This unique hydrophilic quality makes them ideal for weight management, hydration support, gut health, and blood sugar regulation. Chia Seeds are used in a wide variety of health-focused foods such as smoothies, granola bars, yogurt toppings, overnight puddings, baking blends, and fitness drinks.
Our Chia Seeds are sustainably sourced from premium farming zones with pesticide-controlled practices and minimal processing to retain their natural integrity. They are harvested, sun-dried, cleaned, and packed under stringent hygienic conditions. We ensure the seeds remain free from stones, soil particles, and other field contaminants.
