Did Your Chia Seeds Not Work Like They Were Supposed To?

What makes one Chia product better than the others?

Where they come from makes a big difference. When the popularity of Chia seeds as a superfood hit, sellers got their seeds from wherever they could in order to keep up with high demand. Chia farms sprouted up in places like the U.S., Australia and the Philippines to help meet this demand. But here's the problem, Chia seed with maximum appetite suppressing capabilities is grown in the high altitudes of Central and South America.

Why is this? Different types of soil produce a different nutritional makeup in any plant. Only in the highest altitudes of Central or South America does the soil pack chia seeds with the maximum amount of beneficial nutrients. So seeds grown here will give you more energy, more vitamins - in short, they will do more for your health than chia grown anywhere else in the world. And if you're taking chia seeds to help with weight loss, these chia seeds have more fiber content - which is what enables them to swell up in water and make you feel full.

The type of seeds matters. Chia seeds come in different colors. Chia plants with purple flowers will produce what are called Black Chia seeds. Chia plants with white flowers will produce white seeds. Some products will use white seeds, or a mixture of both. But the two are not the same. The white seeds have less nutritional value than the black seeds. They also have less fiber, which is essential to maximum appetite suppression.

Whole is better. Some companies will mill or process their Chia seeds. This greatly decreases their water absorption and appetite suppression ability. You want whole, unprocessed Chia seed.

Don't waste your money on Chia seeds that do not have maximum effectiveness

If you want maximum appetite suppression from your Chia seeds, and to get the highest amount of Omega-3, protein and fiber, this is what you want from your Chia seeds:

• Chia seeds grown in the high altitudes of Central America
• All black Chia seeds
• Un-milled and unprocessed Chia seeds
