Chia seeds are a high energy endurance food used by the ancient Aztecs to provide them with stamina and endurance. Now hailed as a modern day superfood, chia seeds are packed with essential nutrients, antioxidants and minerals including calcium, fibre, iron, manganese, and phosphorous and one of the highest plant-based sources of omega-3. It also slows our body's conversion of carbohydrates to sugar so energy is released slowly and the usual blood glucose highs and lows are avoided. Chia can be eaten ground or whole, raw or cooked. It can be added to cereals, salads, baked treats, stir-fries, smoothies and juices.
