Chia Seeds
The chia seed is jam packed with health promoting nutrients! It is loaded with antioxidants, contains Vitamin A, E, D and B vitamins. It is also a good source of manganese, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. Research has shown that this amazing seed can benefit skin health, heart health, digestive health and may help to prevent breast and cervical cancers. It is a great source of dietary fibre and omega 3 fatty acids. Just 1 tablespoon a day is enough to benefit from this incredible seed.
