Omega 3 Rich Food #4: Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are another great omega 3 source for you to try with 5 grams per ounce or 17.8 grams per 100 grams. In other words, one ounce of chia seed and you are good for the whole day. Like flaxseeds, chia seeds are packed with fiber, plus vitamins and minerals.
The combination of ALA and fiber in chia seeds is thought to help prevent dyslipidemia, excessive fat in the blood, and insulin resistance. Even when consumed with sugar, chia seeds help lower high blood sugar levels. Plus, they are so versatile. Chia seeds make for a great addition in water, protein shakes, and even as a pudding.
