CHIA SEEDS: Packed with Omega 3 fatty acids (about 3g in every 15g serving), antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Chia contains 5 times more calcium than milk, and 34 times more antioxidants than blueberries. The seeds have about 20% of complete protein with all essential amino acids (EFAs) that our body cannot produce on its own. Chia seeds are known to help prevent arthritis and osteoporosis.

There is no significant nutritional difference between the black and white Chia seeds. Both have their fair share of Omega 3, antioxidants and dietary fiber. White Chia seeds will probably be more visually appealing in food recipes. However dark-colored foods are known to have more antioxidants than light-colored foods, generally speaking, due to the high pigment content.
