May you continue to be filled with abundant happiness, good health, great success, and Chia!

Omega 3 Chia milled flour is a stealth health approach to great nutrition.

Although it has been clinically proven that by drinking whole seed, not chewing or milling seed, you achieve a 42% increase of Omega 3’s and antioxidants in the body. If you are not soaking whole seed overnight, it is best to use the milled seed to achieve all maximum nutritional benefits. Add one scoop (1 ½ tablespoons) to any of your daily foods beginning with your first meal to get all day increased energy and digestive benefits. If you are trying to lose weight, add an additional scoop to any beverage 30 minutes before dinner.  Omega 3 Chia is a patent pending flavor enhancer. By adding 3-5% of milled or whole seed you can reduce the need to use salt and/or sugar by 25%. When using whole or milled seed to a recipe, you’ll need to add 20% more liquid.

•  More bio-available (digestible)
• 25 % less needed to achieve same health benefits as whole seed
• Can be completely hidden in children’s or stubborn husband’s food, i.e. pancakes, oatmeal, smoothies
• Great thickening agent for your sauces and gravy’s  Doesn’t get stuck in your teeth
• Easier to swallow
• No seed pass through

Omega 3 Chia is the world’s richest whole food source of omega 3 fatty acids, dietary fiber, antioxidants, and many other essential nutrients.  These abundant nutrients support cardiovascular, digestive, bone, joint, neurological, visual, epidermal, and immune health. We have learned that unlike flax seed, Chia is absorbable when not milled but it is more bio-available when consumed in milled form. We cold micro slice the seed to provide our Omega 3 Chia milled product, as to not damage the Omega 3’s while providing the most nutritious form available.  See our website for more product information.

What we have learned about Chia from research and from our customers is that Chia works best when it is the first thing eaten each morning. This is where we got the phrase, “constant cleanse” because the fibers and oils found in Chia are constantly cleansing which gives the intestines and colon a perfect balance  for optimal digestion. There has been reported success from people who have lost weight by adding a second serving of Chia 30 minutes prior to a meal.

Chia Muffin Recipe

This recipe was handed down by an elderly English woman who was befriended by an American woman studying in London in 1979. Chia has since been added to the recipe by our American friend. Enjoy!

1 2/3 cups all purpose flour (you can substitute soy flour, following the equivalency)
1 cup granulated sugar (we still use sugar or agave over chemical substitutes)
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice

1 teaspoon baking soda

4 tablespoons Omega3Chia whole seed or milled flour or a combination of both

¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup plain organic pumpkin (half of a 1 pound can)
½ cup (1 stick) butter, melted
1 – 1 ½ cups dark chocolate morsels
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray muffin tin with Pam or use paper baking cups. Mix all ingredients in a bowl beginning with the dry ingredients. Prior to adding the morsels, use a hand mixer on low speed to blend batter. Stir in chocolate morsels by hand. Scoop batter evenly into muffin tins/cups. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Test with a toothpick until springy. Immediately remove muffins and place onto a cooling rack. Muffins can be frozen in an airtight container or kept in a plastic bag for 2-3 days.

Yield is 12 muffins.

We double the recipe because everyone loves these muffins

Kids
Omega 3 Chia is a great way to begin to address the nutritional concerns of children. Children can be finicky in their eating and with the marketing of many junk food manufacturers; it can be difficult making the healthier foods the first choice. Go slow and be patient with your children as you steer them towards better eating habits. Tell stories and fun facts about Chia to pique their interest. Ground Omega3Chia added to many recipes will not alter the taste of the food.

Chia Battered Fish Sticks and Chicken

2 tablespoons Omega3 China ground (milled flour)
1-1/2 cups Italian or Panko breadcrumbs
1-1/2 cups soda water
1 egg
12 ounces of white fish cut into 1” strips OR
12 ounces of skinless boneless chicken breast, cut into 1 “ strips
½ cup Worcestershire sauce or hot sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Favorite dipping sauces
Mix together ground (milled Omega3 Chia), 1 cup of flour and a pinch of salt. Add the soda water. Using a whisk, mix well until smooth. Add the egg yolk and mix well. Add the beaten egg white and place into refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Mix the Worcestershire sauce or hot sauce together with your fish or chicken strips. Allow to marinate for at least 10 minutes. Roll fish or chicken in the ¾ cup of flour. This will help hold the batter onto the strips. Put the strips into a heavy frying pan with some oil. Cook until done.

We at Omega 3 Chia emphasize that our chia has complete traceability.  And we have the agricultural certifications that the seed is grown specifically for human consumption.  There are no chemicals or pesticides used on our chia. You can literally walk through the chia fields and eat the seed from the plant.

Our chia products are: naturally gluten free, non-GMO, Kosher certified, and there are no known allergens in chia.

1) How do I choose which chia product to buy? Look for certifications that tell you the chia is grown for people to consume; such as GAP (Good Agricultural Practices), GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices), NON-GMO (not genetically modified), and Kosher certified.

2) Should chia have sand, stems etc.? NO.  If the chia product has debris this could be an indicator that the seed was grown for animal feed and not safe for people to eat.

3) Does chia need to be refrigerated? No, the whole seed does not need to be refrigerated.  The whole seed has a shelf life of at least 5 years. The milled/ground chia needs to be refrigerated and has a shelf life of approximately 2 years.  Remember, that anytime a seed is crushed or broken the oxidation process begins.

4) How much chia should I take on a daily basis? The recommended daily amount is between 15 grams – 22 grams ( 1 1/2 Tbsp. – 2 Tbsp.).

5) Can I take chia if I am currently taking medications? You should always consult your physician.  But remember that chia is a seed and classified as a food by the USDA.

6) Should I grind the chia seed or buy a milled/ground chia? It depends on the individual’s preference. The milled chia seed is more “bioavailable” in the intestinal tract.
