Organic chia seeds for sprouting

🌱 Organic chia seeds for sprouting produce fresh and nutritious young shoots in 7 days, which can be consumed raw as a supplement to a varied diet. Concretely, these seeds germinate on a cellulose mat - because they are mucilaginous seeds that cannot germinate on a flat surface. Frankly, it is one of the most spectacular germinations to observe: in a few days, you have a dense green carpet, ready to be cut with scissors and sprinkled on a salad.

And of course, chia seeds can also be used in the traditional way, ungerminated, in chia pudding, in smoothies, or sprinkled on your dishes. They retain all their nutritional benefits in both forms.

Soaking: The seeds should not be soaked. They should be rinsed and moistened twice a day using a spray or mister, to keep them just barely moist without drowning them.

Germination: 7 days. Chia seeds are mucilaginous seeds and cannot germinate directly on an airtight flat surface. They require a substrate and cannot germinate properly without the germination support that stabilizes the gel they produce.

🌱 To facilitate the germination of mucilaginous seeds, Biovie has developed small rug germination in cellulose specifically designed for this type of seeds, compatible with the automatic sprouter Easygreen Light. These rug can also be used in a suitable rectangular container.

🌱 Their nutritional benefits:

• Gluten-free, Chia seeds offer a wide range of vitamins and minerals: calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, and B vitamins (B1, B3, B9). They also contain very little sodium.

• Calcium and phosphorus contribute to the maintenance of normal bones*. Specifically, a 15 g serving of chia already covers a significant portion of the recommended daily intake of phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium.

• Iron contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and helps reduce fatigue.* - and chia seeds naturally contain them in plant form.

• They contain between 22 and 30% protein, including all essential amino acids. Here is a rare characteristic in the plant kingdom, which makes it a particularly complete source of plant proteins.

• Chia is rich in fiber (about 30%)., mostly soluble, and also contains insoluble fibers. These fibers contribute to food bulk and naturally integrate into a balanced diet.

• Chia seeds are one of the plant sources richest in omega-3., in the form of alpha-linolenic acid or ALA (15 to 20%). They also provide 5 to 8% omega-6 in the form of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), with a favorable omega-3 / omega-6 ratio as part of a varied diet.

• They can absorb up to 14 times their weight in water. Used in gel form, after soaking for only 10 minutes, they become an excellent asset in cooking and baking.

Calcium and phosphorus contribute to the maintenance of normal bone structure. Iron contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system and helps reduce fatigue. The beneficial effect is obtained as part of a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
