Organic Chia Seeds for a Healthy Boost! #organicchia #review


This year, I rang in the New Year with one specific goal in mind: to be the healthiest me that I could possibly be. I knew it wouldn’t be easy and that it would take time to make the changes I knew I needed. One of the changes was to switch to drinking lemon water instead of Diet Coke all day. Believe me, that was a hard change! While cutting some things out, I have also added others like Organic Chia Seeds for a healthy energy boost.

Organic Chia Seeds for a Healthy Boost! #organicchia

If you’ve never heard of Chia Seeds, they look a lot like Poppy Seeds. The seeds come from the Latin American Chia plant that is part of the mint family. You may know it by the name of Salvia hispanica. Chia Seeds have been used as far back as ancient Native American civilizations, such as the Aztecs, to boost well-being. These little super seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients, which is an added plus for vegetarians! They also provide large amounts of fiber and protein. This is great if you are trying to add more fiber to your diet!

Organic Chia Seeds are delicious – even in candy!

Chia seeds have a nutlike flavor that make them delicious incorporated in foods. I have been adding them to cereals, oatmeal, muffins and even homemade candy like this Chocolate Chia Bark! Oh, yes, I still have my sweet tooth but a little candy won’t hurt! Organic Chia Seeds have been a great addition to many of my meals throughout the week, providing me with a powerhouse of health benefits! Their crunch and pleasant nutty taste make them the perfect for my salads and when added to my morning smoothies give me added fiber and protein! I find that adding the Organic Chia Seeds helps keep me full longer! So, even if I only have time for a smoothie for breakfast, my stomach isn’t growling it’s protest before lunchtime!

Beyond the great taste, a few of the health benefits of Chia Seeds are:

  • Rich, natural source of Omega-3 Fatty Acids (as ALA)
  • Natural source of dietary fiber
  • Rich source of plant protein providing a full-spectrum of all essential amino acids
  • Natural source of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, iron, zinc, and copper
  • Provides antioxidant protection
  • Supports heart health
  • Supports glucose health
  • Supports the body’s natural inflammatory response
  • Supports healthy weight
  • Supports healthy intestinal function

Nutrigold Organic Chia Seeds are verified free of allergens that could cause reactions. They are non-GMO and are vegan friendly. With so many health benefits, as well as the high quality of the product, you just can’t go wrong by deciding to introduce Organic Chia Seeds into your diet and/or health regime! My family, and I, love them!

    Thank you for this review! I have heard people talking about Chia seeds but wasn’t sure what to do with them. I would like to try to add them to my family’s diet and know I feel comfortable doing so.

    I have to try this out, and get my family to try it, too. I remember the Chia Pets, but never really knew that they had so many heath benefits! I especially like that they contain so many essential minerals. Thanks!

    I love nuts and I love smoothies,so this sounds like a perfect combination. This price is really good as well. I plan on trying them mixed with a bit of granola on yogurt as well, to replace almonds.
