Convince yourself of the high quality of the organic chia oil and use it for your products in the food industry, such as in salad dressings, as a supplement to smoothies, in oatmeal, yoghurts, or soups.

Trivia
As early as 3500 BC the Aztecs cultivated the chia plant. Ironically, the Spanish banned the Spanish sage, as the chia plant was also called, during the colonization of Central America because of its religious use. It survived in certain areas of Mexico, so that we can now also commercially cultivate it again.
The herbaceous chia plant is about one to one and a half meters high and belongs to the mint family. Its small, purple flowers are reminiscent of lavender.
The tiny gray or brown seeds from the flowers of the chia plant are cold-pressed to produce organic chia oil.
