What is the best chia seed brand?

Hmm. I have gotten this Nutiva brand each time (on sale). I like this. Is it best? I would not know. But, it is crisp and packaged to protect (darkness). I store in fridge as it has volatile oil.

I think Nutiva is the best. If you look at their website they only sell a few products, chia seeds being one of them. I am just finishing my first bag of Nutiva chia seeds and love them. I like that they don't have a taste so I just throw them in my smoothies and then reseal the bag they came in. If I had to try another brand it would be Navitas Naturals who are also organic.

I have only tried one and that is Nutiva. I chose this brand because I have been very pleased with the other products by this company. always fresh..nice packaging and great products.

I highly recommend NUTIVIA, because it's organic yet very affordable. There is several different sizes available. I usually purchase the 12 oz size for freshness, b/c there is only 2 people who use Chia in my household.

We like Nutiva's chia seeds the best. We have tried Now Foods White Chia seeds, and my husband did not like them as much. Now Foods is coming out with black chia seeds and I will have us try those and see if my husband like them. Nutiva's chia seeds are good quality.

I have tried the Nutiva brand of Chia seeds and have been very happy with them, for both taste, packaging, and price.

Whisk together 1 tablespoon chia seed and 3 tablespoons very hot water to replace one large egg - the size egg most often called for in baking. Let mixture sit for about 5 minutes to thicken before using. When using chia seed to replace an egg, it is a good idea to add an extra 1/2 teaspoon baking powder along with the chia seed gel for each egg being replaced to better mimic the leavening properties of eggs.

Sorry, haven't tried chia. It was recommended for bigger seeds so they couldn't pass through but it is a fine grade of hemp so it may work. Try emailing the folks at the sprout house.

Salvia hispanica, commonly known as chia, is a species of flowering plant in the mint family and does not contain gluten. However, the seeds are "Manufactured in a facility that also uses tree nuts, soy, wheat and milk."

I haven't tried the Chi brand but this one is very good, from my experience.

There are 8. Since then, I've discovered the Udi's Millet Chia bread. It is even softer and so delicious!

The Chia Company doesn't advertise their seeds as being organic, however, they do say their seeds are are ripened under the sun and are chemical free.

Mine says it expires 10/16, but I checked on the internet on organic chia seed and it says it is good 2 plus years in pantry and 4 plus years in fridge/freezer. I never had this seed go bad on me and I buy it often. It is Organic, Pesticide & chemical free.

There's NO indication on packaging that the chia seeds are grown in China and then distributed from Scottsdale, AZ. There's currently little likelihood of obtaining chia seeds for edible consumption from China, since most of that country is not suitable for chia seed production. Chia plants are grown as field crops requiring relatively long periods of light. Under the right conditions, they form seeds once a year in the fall. Chia plants on CHIA PETS made in China grow, mature, and die in indoor settings without ever going to seed.

Source Naturals is one of the "good brands". I always buy trusted brands when buying supplements.

You would most likely need to experiment to see how you like to consume them. I like to put one tablespoon of chia seeds in a small juice glass with about 4 ounces of my favorite juice (usually 100% cranberry juice or 100% cherry juice). I let it sit for about 15 minutes. The seeds plump up to a gel like consistency. I do this first thing in the morning after coffee and again before bed. I have friends that put the seeds in their yogurt, oatmeal or in their morning fruit smoothies. The possibilities are endless. Eating them raw would probably be my last choice.

The seed in this product is grown in Ecuador or Bolivia as this is the best climate for Chia to grow. Every harvest is specially selected by me personally. With over 30 years of organic production experience, I personally manage our organic farming operations in Ecuador. The organic growing methods we use are the most advanced and cutting edge techniques and materials (all vegan) known in the world. We have an ongoing on-farm research program that is dedicated to continuously discovering new ways to optimize soil fertility and produce the most nutritionally abundant chia seeds in the world. Thank you for asking.

I can't think of any reason chia seeds would be a problem during pregnancy, especially these organically grown seeds. Of course, you would want to include a full range of other healthy foods for best nutritional results during pregnancy!
