The Amazing Health Benefits Of Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are a nutritional supplement that will provide you with fiber, protein, calcium and omega-3.  Consuming 4 tablespoons a day - the optimal daily consumption - gets you 14 grams of fiber.  They have a neutral flavor so there's a lot of ways you can incorporate chia seeds into your diet.  One of the best ways would be to include it in a smoothie, which will leave you feeling energized and awake for the day.  You can also sprinkle them directly on your meals.
