Chia seeds are an excellent source of nutrition, packed with fiber, protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and various essential minerals. Here are some ways to get the maximum health benefit from chia seeds:

Soak them: Soaking chia seeds in water or any liquid for a few hours or overnight can help increase their nutritional value.

On the other hand, societies where people live well beyond seven score years and ten, (Okinawa, Abkhasia, Vilcabamba and Hunza) are happily going about their lives in their nineties and beyond, fully present both mentally and emotionally, playing a needed and important role in their families and societies.

The difference could hardly be more poignant.

We are sun, water, air, soil, minerals, seed, food, virus, bacteria, and parasites all living together.
