Where chia seeds come from
Chia seeds have ancient origins and are native to Central and South America. They were a staple food in the diets of ancient Aztecs and Mayans. Chia seeds were valued for their nutritional properties and were used as a source of sustainable energy. In terms of cuisine, chia seeds are not specifically associated with a single cuisine, but they have become popular worldwide and are used in a variety of dishes. Chia seeds are versatile and can be added to smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, salads, and baked goods, making them a popular ingredient in modern, health-conscious diets across different culinary traditions.
Why there are healthy
Chia seeds are indeed a rich source of dietary fiber. Approximately, a two-tablespoon (about 28 grams) serving of chia seeds contains around 10 grams of fiber. This includes a combination of soluble and insoluble fiber. The high fiber content in chia seeds contributes to their ability to absorb liquid, forming a gel-like consistency, which can be beneficial for digestion and satiety.
