An organic farmer for the last 12 years, Anand came to know about chia during a training programme he attended in Mysore around 2 years ago, and has been cultivating it ever since.

So let’s talk Chia and why you should be eating it every day.

If you’re one to curate your meals based on the health properties they provide, you will absolutely love this little seed.

5. The seeds have the propensity to improve boost energy and metabolic health! 

6. Studies have shown that a diet that includes chia can also help reduce Type 2 diabetes.
