Like Flaxseed, Chia seeds are a high fat product that is practically carb-free. These seeds are small and hard when you begin (like sesame seeds), but can soak up liquids and become soft, gooey, and delicious.
These little seeds are one of the most nutrient dense foods around and are packed full of micronutrients like calcium, magnesium, and phosphorous. Not only are they nutritious, they’re packed full of antioxidants to help fight those pesky free radicals in your body. Plus, they’re a great source of plant-based protein, which means it will drastically help with appetite when eaten.
Made into puddings, brownies, and even cookies, chia seeds are something that you should keep around for those times you’re in the mood for something softer and gooier than normal.
