(based on a 18g serving size)
Organic Chia Seed Protein Powder is a wholefood protein powder containing an abundance of protein, poly-unsaturated fatty acids and dietary fibre. It is made from ground chia seeds which have majority of oil components removed to achieve a better shelf life stability. The Organic Chia Seed Protein Powder contains minimum 25% protein, which can be used in combination with other plant protein sources e.g. Pea Protein. Chia seeds, from the plant Salvia hispanica L., have gained popularity in recent years for their nutritional benefits. They are rich in protein, fibre, and healthy fats, with most of their fats being omega-3s. They’re also full of essential amino acids like leucine and lysine, plus they have antioxidants like caffeic acid and myricetin, which help prevent spoilage and keep them fresh.
