HISTORY

5 000 years ago

Beautiful, purple flowering plants of the Hispanic sage have been growing in the high mountain landscape since 5,000 years ago. Their tiny yet highly nutritious seeds were so valued by the population of the time that they were used as currency. [1]

ORIGIN AND PRODUCTION

Cold pressed

Sage (Salvia hispanica) – is a perennial herb originally from Mexico. The much appreciated chia oil is obtained from their seeds in a gentle way, by cold pressing.

INGREDIENTS AND PROPERTIES

Essential omega-3 and 6 fatty acids in their ideal ratio

Essential fatty acids, fat-soluble vitamins, phytosterols. For these and other beneficial substances, chia oil is an extremely nutritious vegetable oil that belongs in a balanced diet.

The essential omega-3 and 6 fatty acids linolenic (56.6%) and linoleic (18.7%), which are present in the oil in their ideal 3:1 ratio, make chia oil an excellent and palatable alternative to fish oil. [1,2]

CHIA OLEJ

Tento olejček som kúpila na dopĺňanie omega 3 MK pre môjho dvojročného syna. Chuť je pomerne výrazná a naozaj stačí iba jedna ČL ako uvádza dávkovanie.
