Chia is a seed whose consumption has increased worldwide in recent years. Due to the multiple benefits, it offers to the organism, it is considered a Super Food Peru. The one we offer in Andina Food is grown in the Ayacucho region, but it is also harvested in the regions of Arequipa and Puno.
According to studies, 100 g of seeds has 4 times more calcium than 100 ml of milk, which makes it a very important food to include in the diet as it helps protect teeth and can stimulate bone growth.
This seed offers a high amount of antioxidants. In addition, it contains omega-3 fatty acids and a low concentration of omega-6.
The chia seeds offered are 100% natural, free of pesticides and gluten, which allows them to retain their high fiber content, ideal for regulating intestinal transit.
