Chia seeds, often referred to as Hispanic sage, come from a flowering plant belonging to the mint family and are native to the tropical and sub-tropical valleys of Central and South America. Known for their numerous healthy properties, Chia seeds were a staple in both the Incan and Aztec empires established centuries ago in Central and South America. Chia seeds are both small and nutrient dense which makes it a simple addition to almost any meal. Chia seeds are a natural source of Omega-3 nutrients.
