Loving me some Chia Seeds!

Chia seeds are on the market and like any other health food product, they are coming in strong.  If you have recently ventured into any health food store, such as Whole Foods, you would have seen many products that contain chia seeds or even just chia seeds alone.   And for good reason! Basically, chia seeds are awesome and they should become a new staple in your diet.  First of all, chia seeds are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids.  These fabulous and healthy fats (ALA, DHA & EPA) benefit the brain by increasing memory and cognition, help to decrease inflammation in the body, assist in lowering high cholesterol and high blood pressure, and play positive roles in diabetes, heart disease, depression, and arthritis.
