Mustari Vegan Gardens: Chia seeds * comes from the mint family but what can it do for me?
I asked myself this when I was looking for a health addition to my smoothie. In researching this seed it appears it has been linked to hydration, lower B/P, easy to digest and articles state it can even help with diabetes by assisting in controlling blood sugars. This price, this value and these benefits makes this the perfect addition. There seems to be no flavor, at-least not for me. I can even add this to the hubbies smoothies and the children's smoothies for health benefits without them feeling the taste has been compromised. I am a busy wife, mother, EMT and full-time student, with all of these health benefits being address by this one product it makes for a great life choice.
This product arrived fresh and I will certainly buy it again! Great product & great price!
Study bag- great zip-lock for easy storage.
* Heads up if you have a nut allergy as it states on the bag that this package facility also handles tree nuts.

robyn: The seeds themselves are fine, I suppose. HOwever, when I received the package it was slit, then re-wrapped in saran wrap so the seeds released into the saran wrap and it was really hard to open w/o spreading a fair amount of seeds all over. I have linoleum in my kitchen so I just vacuumed up the mess, but the waste of product and money is frustrating. Then when I poured the seeds into separate containers there was a lot of dust swirling around and on the containers. There's really no way for me to 'wash' that off or clean it so it kinda grosses me out to know how much dirt (from who knows where) I'm ingesting. Also, there is a fair amount of debris in these seeds. Ive been eating chia seeds for almost 2 years now from a variety of sources and these are the worst I've seen. There are tiny, very black round things in the seeds .... I'm wondering if they're undeveloped seeds?? -- but I can, for the most part, get past those. But, there are quite a bit of small grass/twig things. We're talking very thin but about 2cm in length for some of the longer pcs. So, you can kind of crunch down on these and its a little disturbing. Depends on how you stomach that kind of thing. I would...

Jim: Cons 1st: Price keeps going up :-(. Few months back a 3lb bag was $16 bucks. Now, $20 bucks.
Yes, researched chia seeds and didn't really think adding this to my diet would make me feel any different. However, since I've been adding chia seeds to my diet I feel great. Don't get me wrong, It's not a miracle food - I don't feel like running a marathon at the end of the day. However, I do feel more alert, I don't hit that 3:00 wall at work, and I certainly don't feel as hungry as I do by the end of the day. I've been adding these seeds to yogurt, oatmeal and a few other meals. The 1st day or so I really didn't notice a difference. After about a day I realized I felt pretty good, alert and slightly energetic. I wrote it off as a goods nights sleep. That being said, I've felt the same each day since and especially notice this feeling of elevated energy (relative to how I used to feel) toward the end of a day.
Everybody is different but my wife claims the same. She puts it well when she stated something to the effect of, "I just feel, comfortable... attentive during the day"

my3kids: I started using chia seeds in Nov 2010 after a friend told me that it is much richer in Omega 3 than flax (which I also love). I just ordered another 3lbs of this stuff as I am getting low and I don't want to run out! I read someone's review who gained weight and blamed it on chia but they also said that they consumed 9tbsp of it daily (3tbsp 3X day). I put it into my coffee every morning when I wake up and it helps me keep very regular....9 out of 10 times it works like a charm in a little as 10-30min. I don't think of the calories that I am consuming, I think of it as incredible vitamins, omega 3 and how happy I am after my morning 'magic coffee drink'. I even used it while I was on a strict diet and it did not stop the weightloss. It's good for you and the side effects are amazing!
If the thought of putting it into your coffee is not appealing, you can mix it into pretty much anything....I love it in chobani greek yogurt for instance. It's just easier for me to remember to eat it when I put it into my coffee.
Two of my friends are using it also and we all love it!
