Chia seeds have been gaining more and more prominence in recent years, especially when it comes to healthy living. And no wonder. Thanks to their high content of many beneficial substances, they are popular among lovers of healthy lifestyle and those who are trying to lose some extra pounds or simply maintain their ideal figure. Just watch the dosage. The recommended dose is a maximum of 15 g per day per person.

Chia seeds contain high levels of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids. They have a positive effect on the heart, blood vessels and nerves and stimulate brain function. Further in themyou'll find significant fiber content, which is essential for proper bowel function and contributes to a feeling of satiety. They also bind water well and form a fine, easily digestible gel in the body, which positively affects the body's water economy. Did you know that even though chia seeds are really tiny at first glance, they can increase their volume up to twelve times after contact with water? They bind water and form a transparent gel around themselves, which behaves similarly to an egg during cooking and baking.

Chia seeds have a really large number of uses. You can add them to your favourite breakfast porridge, make them into pudding or add them to pancake batter. They also taste great in fruit jams. If you like to bake homemade pastries, try adding chia seeds to bread dough. The crumb will be beautifully soft and the bread will stay soft and fresh for a little longer.
