Chia seeds are a top reining superfood amoung athletes and health enthusiasts. They contain ample amounts of ALA omega-3 fatty acids, complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and worth noting a small amount of protein. Chia seeds release their stored energy slowly into the blood stream due to their high dietary fiber content and also their amazing ability to absorb fluid and expand into a gel like substance. They are recommended for most individuals (unless you negatively react to them) and can be eaten regularly.
