There are some concerns of reaction when used in patients with known sensitivity to members of the genus Salvia, and patients with food allergies (especially to sesame or mustard seeds) as cross-reactivity may occur, according to the U.K. Advisory Committee on Novel Foods and Processes. This potential chia protein allergenicity was demonstrated by specific IgE binding and immunoblot analysis.

Prenatal Health The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reported that Omega3's are very important to nourish the developing brain of the baby and to the mental health of the mother. Chia also contains essential amino acids, phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals including folate (folic acid) all of which are extremely important in fetal development.
Heart Health Given today's typical dietary habits, finding additional sources of Omega3's is more important than ever. To help offset that negative dietary trend, Chia contains the perfect ratio of 3:1 (3 Omega3's to 1 Omega6), all of which makes Chia essential for maintaining a healthy heart.
Anti Aging Did you know that every ninety days your body regenerates nearly all of its seventoten trillion cells? When healthy, stronger, smoother, more elastic cells are properly regenerated, the aging process is slowed.
Fights free radical damage Aging happens when damaged cells are replicated. Chia's antioxidants act to neutralize the free radicals that cause premature aging. Flushes out ageaccelerating toxins Regain youthful exuberance Skin elasticity Hair, skin and nail enhancement Joint lubrication Reduces muscle soreness and speeds rejuvenation Lowers lactic acid buildup in muscles
Weight Loss Chia is so nutrient-dense that the equivalent nutrients can only be acquired by consuming an amount of food that represents approximately 6 times the calories of Chia. For example, consuming 3 oz. of Chia results in about 6 times fewer calories from the combined best sources of the same nutrient. In addition, Chia's exceptionally high level of Tryptophan (an amino acid that suppresses appetite) may relieve hunger pangs. Chia can easily be used in formulating meal replacements.
Maintaining Healthy Blood Pressure Chia has a vasodilatory effect by increasing the size of the arteries and thereby can play a role in lowering blood pressure.
Breast Health Preliminary research at the University of California, Los Angeles suggests that Omega3's may help maintain healthy breast tissue.
Prostate Health Numerous studies show that diets high in Omega3's and fiber may help maintain a healthy prostate. Chia with its high Omega3 and fiber content, is an easy and simple way to include these necessary nutritional benefits into your daily diet.
Gastrointestinal Health Chia is also a hydrophilic colloid. This important property aids in the digestion of food and helps control excess acids associated with indigestion, heartburn, and sour stomach. Chia's unique soluble fiber content combined with its hydrophilic colloidal properties makes a gel in the stomach that creates a physical barrier thereby "lining" the stomach.
Bone Health Per serving, Chia contains six times more calcium than milk. Chia is a rich source of other essential minerals like phosphorous, magnesium and iron, all of which aid in the absorption and utilization of calcium by the body.
Mental Health The International Journal of Clinical Practice tells us that much research (including research from Harvard) has linked low levels of Omega3's in the body with mood disorders. Omega3's are believed to keep the brain's pattern of thoughts, reactions, and reflexes running cohesively and efficiently.
Blood Sugar Salvia hispanica L.'s nutrient-dense qualities and Omega-3 content has been shown to assist in the management of proper blood sugar levels.
