Raw Goodness™

Chia as a gluten-free Superfood!


Throughout history, as far back as the ancient Aztecs, chia has been used for energy, stamina and endurance.

In an amazing modern day illustration of the power of chia, 52-year old Tarahumara Indian Ciraldo Chacarito, astonished the sports world by winning a 200 mile race in handmade sandals.

What was his secret? CHIA!

This remarkable superfood has virtually no taste, but an amazing abundance of nutrients, and a unique quality of thickening - almost instantly – when mixed with any liquid.

  • Great for thickening sauces and soups
