Chia seeds are tiny edible seeds from the Salvia hispanica plant, native to Central America. They are black or gray in color and are hailed as a superfood due to their rich nutritional profile. Chia seeds are hydrophilic, meaning they absorb liquid and form a gel-like texture, making them ideal for health foods and dietary use.
