Great quality chia seeds!

These are great. I was using them in my smoothies for a while (with ground flaxseed) until I realized that my stomach couldn't handle them. I have gastroparesis (paralyzed stomach) and I guess these were expanding in my stomach (even though I waited for them to expand before drinking my smoothie) too much and causing me pain. I tried chia pudding which is AMAZING! I also noticed that these expand a LOT more than I realized and just waiting five minutes for them to expand for my smoothie wasn't enough. I suggest trying the chia pudding ! It's amazing!! But alas, too much for my stomach to handle. A normal person who likes chia seeds would love it though!! I love chia seeds and these were amazing, but my stomach doesn't agree with me. So, if you have digestive issues, you might not want these, but if you don't, these are amazing!!!! I'm going to still try the chia pudding just a smaller amount. Once you have it, it's hard to not eat it again!!!! You'll love these!

Great energy boost when added to kombucha tea!

Love the energy boost I get from these when I put it in my kombucha tea. I add 4 tbsp to 1 quart, add essential oils for flavor, and stir periodically for about 10-15 minutes. Absolute yum! I do this every single day! In fact I'm about to buy this again! Thinking a subscription for this product would be a good option for me as much as I love it. Great price point too. Thank you so much!

More bio-available & deceptively easy to eat more than you want to !

Although chia seed can be eaten ground or whole (unlike flax seed), I bought this because I think being ground makes it more bio-available to the gut. No difference taste wise (just as tasteless as the whole seeds), but it does mix more easily in my smoothies & does not create a gel which the seeds used to. I think I'm also eating more of it than I used to eat the whole seeds, because the powder form makes it deceptively easy to scoop out more than usual ! I believe this brand (Nutiva) has the most Omega-3 & fiber than any of the other brands (although it's ALA Omega-3 & not as effective as non-veg Omega-3).

love this product

love this product, i got my first one from Costco but its kind of messy to go to Costco and this product is always out of stock. After drinking this with honey (you need to soak the seed for around 10mins in water), you will start feeling good for daily restroom duty! good for your health for sure!

An Ideal Superfood

Great product! I'm on my second bag and I have had no issues with this product. The added benefit is 1% goes back to sustainable agriculture. I put a tablespoon of it in my oatmeal every morning along with granola and fruit. It's barely noticeable in terms of changing the taste or texture of the oatmeal. That on top of the health benefits makes it an ideal superfood.

Competitively priced to my local Costco, super tasty!

I typically purchase my Chia Seeds from Costco but every so often they are out of stock, which is when I turn to Amazon to purchase them! I simply throw a large tablespoon into my morning smoothie which causes the smoothie to thicken and leave a mellow nutty-taste. Super tasty and competitively priced compared to my local Costco!

Fantastic. Works for everything.

Fantastic chia seeds. I fly through chia seeds and I love how these are affordable, organic and high quality. I’ve never come across anything foreign in my bags and I’ve heard that can be a risk with chia seeds. I highly recommended. They’re great for smoothies.

These are great but you need to use it right

I have been eating through my bag for more then a year at half a teaspoon at a time. It has been great in yogurt by just dumping it in. Other times you will need to soak it in water to properly saturate the seeds. I have found they do not saturate well in any liquid with a high acid content. Overnight my wife and I put them in water, orange juice, and cranberry juice. Progressively each was less saturated then the last. I found you can saturate them in water then later pour in a juice of your choice.

All I can ask of you is to Google: ...

All I can ask of you is to Google: Health benefits of Chia Seeds! The trick my friends to making Chia seed gel that will last 3 weeks in your refrigerator is to add 2 cups of water in a glass container and then add 1/3rd Cup of Chia seeds! THEN IMMEDIATELY STIR with a spoon for at least 10 MINUTES! The liquid will get thicker and thicker and thicker. Place in refrigerator and when you add 3 tablespoons of Chia Seed Gel to a juice or smoothie you are doing something very HEALTHY. Per Gram Chia Seeds Contain: • 8x more Omega-3 than Salmon. Chia seeds have 2,400 mg Omega-3’s. Omega-3 Fatty Acids are proven to boost our Immune Systems by energizing White Blood cells (Macrophages) which locate and engulf harmful Bacteria. Omega-3s are believed to have a protective effect against Cancer. Omega-3’s can help reduce inflammation, enhance Cognitive performance and help protect the Brain. • 3 Tablespoons = 249 milligrams of Calcium • 3 times more Iron than Spinach. Iron carries oxygen to the blood • 15 times more Magnesium than Broccoli • 6 times more Protein than Kidney Beans • 4 times more Phosphorous than Whole Milk • 2 times more Fiber than Bran Flakes. 3 Tablespoons of Chia Gel in a glass of juice contain 15 grams of Fiber. Fiber helps remove toxins. In the intestines, the bile from the (LIVER) and its toxic load are absorbed by (Fiber) and excreted. 2 glasses of Chia seed gel daily gives you 30 grams of Fiber to help remove the toxins your Liver broke down. • Chia seeds can play an important role in regulating insulin levels • Chia seeds are high in Lignans. Lignans are phytoestrogens that prevent heart disease, Prostate Cancer and many other killer diseases. Chia Seeds also contain 18 of the 22 amino acids, including all 9 Essential Amino Acids your body can’t make itself. I am a disabled vet and all I have is my health.

Top quality chia. Certified Organic.

You'll have a difficult time finding better quality chia seeds than this. I've been eating chia seeds daily for over 5 years. I bought my first bags from a company who was the first and only online distributer at the time. There wasn't even a certified organic chia farm back then. I was happy to see chia take off in recent years. In my opinion, chia seed is the world's greatest seed, superior to flax seed - not only in nutrition, but also taste. Having tried chia seeds from a handful of companies, I feel that Nutiva Organic Chia Seeds are one of the best out there. For a tasty drink that provides energy for hours, try 1 TBSP chia seeds, the fresh juice from 1/4 (to 1/2) a lime, a little honey or agave to taste, and 16 oz water. Stir everything and let sit for 20 minutes. You'll have a tasty high energy meal replacement. Enjoy!
