Nutritional content and health benefits of chia seeds
Chia seeds, also known as Spanish sage, are rich in essential nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids (25–41%), primarily alpha-linolenic acid (up to 64 g per 100 g), providing a favorable ratio of anti-inflammatory omega-3 to pro-inflammatory omega-6 acids (linoleic acid). They also contain high protein levels (15–25%), moderate carbohydrates (26–41%), antioxidants such as flavonoids (myricetin, quercetin, campherol), which inhibit platelet aggregation, and dietary fiber (38–40 g/100 g), including insoluble fiber like Lignin Klason, which lowers lipid levels by binding bile acids. Soluble fiber forms gel-like structures, promoting satiety and delaying glucose release. Chia seeds also contain cinnamic acid, chlorogenic acid, and caffeic acid with antibacterial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, as well as B vitamins, D, E, and minerals like calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and iron. Due to their gluten-free nature, they are safe for individuals with celiac disease or gluten intolerance. Tab. 1: Nutritional content of chia seeds per 100 g
