How is Chia Seed Flour made?
The Chia Seed is nutrient dense and packs a punch of energy boosting power. Aztec warriors ate chia seeds to give them high energy and endurance. They said just 1 spoonful of chia could sustain them for 24 hours. Chia means “strength” in the Mayan language, and they were known as “runners food” because runners and warriors would use them as fuel while running long distances or during battle.
Not only that, but recent research has found that the Chia Seed benefits are even greater than we realised. Chia seed benefits include promoting healthy skin and reducing signs of aging.
