From omega-3 to strong bones and muscles — here’s the wide range of chia benefits at a glance

Anne told me she’d read all the great things omega-3s do, but wasn’t taking any. Turns out, that’s because she wanted a vegetarian source. And she just assumed “fish oil” was the only way to get a healthy dose of omega-3s.

Apparently Anne hadn’t read up as much as she thought. Because there’s a great source of omega-3s (and a ton of other nutrients) that is miles from the ocean: chia.

If you must pass on the fish, you can’t do better than chia for omega-3s. That’s because chia offers a stunning list of additional benefits.

This is one of those “superfoods” that really does deserve that designation.

I could go on and on (and on and on and on…) about the other nutrients in chia and their benefits. But let’s keep it easy…
