Herbs: Chia seed - whole

Quantity:

These seeds are known as “Indian Running Food” - Aztecs used this as a high energy endurance food during their conquests. “Chia” is the Mayan word for strength.

The Chia seed is one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids, an anti-inflammatory agent that is good for healthy skin and involved in the cholesterol metabolism function. It is an excellent source of natural antioxidants, protein, calcium, phosphorus, manganese, potassium, zinc, copper, and iron. In fact, Chia contains six times more iron than spinach. Also, it’s gluten free.

Chia seeds have been known to:

increase energy and strength

heighten endurance

level blood sugar

promote intestinal regularity

These seeds can be ground and mixed with flour to make breads, but it is not necessary to grind Chia seed as they can be taken whole. They can be added to foods like cereals, juices, broths, salads, and yogurt. Also, Chia seeds will last for years without refrigeration.

Greetings!
I have a great use for the Cinnamon sticks I got from Bulk Herb Store! When I was canning applesauce recently, I put one whole stick in each quart of applesauce, then processed them as usual. After a few months, we opened a jar to find a super-tasting cinnamon applesauce. I thought you might want to pass this along to others as it is apple harvest time. This would be an easy way to add delicious flavor to applesauce. Thanks for providing excellent quality products!
