Chia seeds are called chia seeds. Sage was one of the main components of the Aztec diet. Spanish sage, the plant from which its prized seeds are obtained, is grown in the regions of Mexico and Guatemala. The fruit that produces the sage in the crevice contains seeds. They have three kinds of colors, grey, white and black.
Chia seeds contain up to 35% fat, mainly polyunsaturated fats. The fatty acids it contains are alpha-linolenic, palmitic, linoleic and oleic acid. Thanks to them, they have a positive effect on memory and concentration. Another 25% of the composition consists of proteins. They are not gluten proteins, so these seeds can be eaten by people who have had to eliminate gluten from their diet. They contain such amino acids as arginine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. For this reason, they can positively influence the improvement of immunity. They also contain a high fiber content of about 26 grams per 100 grams of product, which speeds up the metabolism. They also contain tocopherols, i.e. vitamin E, which has an antioxidant effect, i.e. it fights free radicals in our body. As a result, it increases our immunity. The minerals include potassium, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, iron, copper and manganese. Thanks to all these minerals, chia is a great addition to our diet, which affects the replenishment of calcium in the bones, improves the quality of sleep and concentration, and has a beneficial effect on the work of our muscles.
Spanish sage seed can be eaten raw or after infusing it with water, cow's milk, or plant milk. After being doused with liquid, they begin to swell and, after a few hours of rest, form a characteristic pudding. Such a meal provides a quick feeling of satiety that lasts for a long time. However, it is worth controlling the amount consumed during the day, mainly due to the high fiber content, as excess intake decreases the absorption of minerals and can even lead to excessive bowel movements.
INTERESTS
Chia in Nahuatl means "oily".
In 100 grams, it contains more calcium (up to 631 mg) than milk and more omega-3 fatty acids than Atlantic salmon. They are also an ideal alternative to protein supplements for vegetarians and vegans.
PREPARATION of the pudding: Add about 8 tablespoons of water to one tablespoon of chia. Mix the seeds with water (or other liquid) several times during the first 30 minutes to loosen them. Then let it rest for at least an hour, after which time the seeds will spread evenly in the liquid and form their characteristic pudding.
