Chia is an ancient superfood that is very similar to flax, but without the estrogen and phytoestrogen element. It isjust as good, if not even better source of EFA, so it will do wonders for your health and skin.
Here’s a bit of trivia for you – the chia seeds were originally used by the Mayans as an energy supplement. The running messengers used to carry a little pouch of the seeds around with them. So, chia has been called the “Indian running food”.

5 times the calcium of milk
2 times the amount of potassium as bananas
3 times more iron than spinach
and of course, copious amounts of omega-3 and omega-6
