National Chia Day is TODAY, Thursday, March 23 and since Chia seeds are one of our family favorites in shakes, on sandwiches and in oatmeal in our house, we just have to celebrate!

One of our favorite chia brands, Mamma Chia, is also celebrating and are sharing the top 4 benefits of chia and other awesome info about chia’s rich-nutritional background and history. Check it out below!

Mamma Chia’s organic, chia-based snacks and beverages are an easy and portable way to reap the benefits of chia. Plus, Mamma Chia actually founded National Chia Day last year and started the chia beverage category in 2009!

DID YOU KNOW?

Chia seeds are a complete protein, a rich plant-based source of Omega-3s providing fiber, antioxidants, minerals and more.

Mamma Chia’s top-four favorite benefits of chia seeds include:

1. Rich Nutritional Value: Gram per gram, chia has 8x more Omega-3s than salmon, 25 percent more fiber than flaxseed, 30 percent more antioxidants than blueberries, 2x more potassium than bananas, 70 percent more protein than soy beans, and 2x more calcium than milk.
2. Satiety: Chia is a complete protein, which can help you feel more satisfied after a meal.
3. Digestion: Chia seeds have both soluble and insoluble fiber, which can aid in digestion.
4. Plant Protein: Chia has more than 4g of vegetarian protein per one ounce, and unlike flaxseed, chia does not have to be ground to reap its benefits.

I LOVE getting my Chia seed servings in the Mamma Chia Vitality Bars! They are so delicious, filling and easy to eat on the go, which is so important to me!

In our house, we are big fans of Chia seeds and try to incorporate them in whatever meal we are having whether it be breakfast, snack or dinner!

Lately, we have even been enjoying Chia seeds in our DRINKS with new beverages from Mamma Chia, the leader of the chia revolution. They have created a delicious new beverage that combines the powerhouse of chia with healthy, vibrant greens.

Why do we LOVE chia? 

Chia seeds are the richest plant-based source of Omega-3s on the planet. An excellent source of dietary fiber, complete protein and antioxidants, both the Maya and Aztecs held this ancient seed in high esteem for increasing vitality, strength, and overall good health.

Chia & Greens is a delicious, fun on-the-go beverage with one of the lowest amounts of sugar and the highest amount of nutrients in the green drinks universe. In fact, each bottle delivers 2500mg of Omega-3s, seven grams of fiber, four grams of complete protein, 25% RDA of Vitamin A, and 95mg of calcium. Enjoy it as a kick-start to your day, as a revitalizing mid-afternoon pick-me-up or anytime you want that feeling of rejuvenation!

This fresh, new line combines the nutritional powerhouse of chia with vibrant greens, offering category-leading nutrition with great-tasting flavors to provide a delicious, fun, on-the-go beverage.

Each of the four invigorating beverages is bursting with nutrient-rich chia seeds and organic power veggies, including kale, spinach, broccoli, spirulina, barley grass, and wheatgrass.
