chia ?





 
 This is not a sponsored post .
I'm sure you're wondering why the heck is she talking about chia.
 
 
You may already know about all this but I've only recently discovered chia.
I had heard that it was really good for you but I thought I'd do a little research .
 
 
I learned ~ from here
 
they are gluten free .
super high in dietary fibre.
eight times more omega 3 than salmon.
20%protein.
high in antioxidents (4 times higher than blueberries)
five times more calcium than milk.
seven times more vitamin C than oranges.
3 times more iron than spinach.
double the potassium content of bananas
 
They have no taste either so they don't spoil the flavour
of whatever else you have added it to .
 
 
I am NOT a health professional in any way shape or form
but if sprinkling 1 tablespoon of chia on my cereal is going
to give me all this I'm there !
 
 
As I said this is not a sponsored post although I do have a connection
with the supermarket that produces Macro foods but
they are not aware of this post and have not asked me to do it .
 
I'm just sharing some info because I'm nice like that .
 
The giveaway in the post below is still open go,go,go !

  1. But what do they taste like? Seems like a worthy addition to my breaky cereal.

  5. You sold me. I purchased a mixed jar of black and white chia yesterday and have been feeding it to both my children and myself. Just in cereal or in yoghurt. You only really need a tablespoon per day so it's easy to achieve. Thanks!
