"Chia seeds provide an excellent source of anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids... Just one ounce of chia seeds packs a whopping 10 grams of fiber. Its insoluble fiber acts as a prebiotic that feeds friendly gut bacteria and ferments into short-chain fatty acids to support gut health. Chia seeds also contain more protein than most plant foods. And they contain more calcium than milk." (Dr. Hyman)
