Chia Seed

Chia is the richest plant based source of Omega 3, dietary fibre, protein and antioxidants.

Chia is available in two colour varieties. The 'black' variety of Chia naturally contains a combination of black, and white seeds. The 'white' Chia variety was formed by specially selecting white seeds from the black variety. The Chia Company grows dedicated paddocks of black and white seed.

Aside from the obvious colour difference, the seed itself is virtually the same in all of its properties - size, taste and smell, with the exception of a few minor seasonal nutritional differences.

We refer to Chia as Nature's Complete Superfood because it is very high in nutrition that is essential for a healthy diet including Omega 3, dietary fibre and protein as well as vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

Chia Bran

Chia Bran is perfect for people looking to increase the fibre in their diet. Chia Bran is the husk of the Chia seed which consists of 55.5% dietary fibre and 26.1% complete protein.

The fibre in Chia Bran is 80% insoluble and 20% soluble which is the optimal ratio to aid healthy digestion. Chia Bran is gluten free and works to improve digestive health and aid regularity whilst also contributing to healthy cholesterol levels. Only two tablespoons of Chia Bran will provide over half of your recommended daily fibre intake.

Chia Ground Seed

Chia Ground Seed is the whole ground version of our Chia seed. Chia Ground Seed has the same nutritional profile as Chia seeds and have been created for those who prefer the ground texture.

We use a special natural process to carefully grind our Chia seeds to protect the omega 3, vitamins and minerals and to prevent oxidisation. One tablespoon (15gs) of Chia Ground Seed is recommended each day for your overall health and wellbeing.

Chia Oil

Chia Oil is the natural omega 3 plant oil extracted from the Chia Seed. Our oil is ideal for people looking to boost their daily omega 3 intake. This includes; vegetarians seeking a healthy source of plant based oils, arthritis sufferers looking to improve joint function and mobility and those who want to help enhance their heart health.

10ml of Chia Oil every day meets your body’s daily requirement for plant based omega 3 ALA. Chia Oil has a mild and pleasant taste that can be consumed straight from the spoon or added to salads, smoothies or meals. Whilst is can be used in baking recipes, Chia Oil is not suitable for pan cooking. To ensure that Chia Oil stays fresh, it should be refrigerated once it has been opened.
