Salba or White Chia Seeds:
A new type of superfood receiving a lot of attention these days is salba (white chia
seeds), which contains 6 times more calcium than whole milk, 15 times more
magnesium than broccoli, 3 times more anti-oxidant power than fresh blueberries,
more fiber than flaxseed, and more protein than soy. Now that's impressive for such
a simple looking little seed! At one time the ancient Aztecs actually prized it more
highly than gold. They fed it to their athletes, used it as medicine, and even offered it
to their gods. But then the Spanish conquistadors arrived on the scene, and for the
next five centuries somehow salba became just a colorful legend.
But now that modern researchers have rediscovered the remarkable properties of
this nutritional gold mine, it’s beginning to show up again everywhere. Scientist have
found that, gram for gram, salba has 8 times more Omega 3 fatty acids than fresh
Atlantic salmon, so it’s a real winner for promoting a healthy cardiovascular system
and heart function. And it helps maintain good cholesterol levels and keeps your
blood pressure where it should be. And salba energizes you honestly, unlike many
energy drinks that are just “caffeine in a costume” and can cause a blood sugar
crash later. It’s also high in fiber—you’d need to eat 1 ¾ cups of bran to get the fiber
in just a few ounces of salba.
But this super grain isn’t just one of the richest whole-food sources of fiber on the
planet. Each tiny granule is packed with both soluble and insoluble fiber, in ideal
balance. Salba’s insoluble fiber gently “scrubs” debris and toxins from your colon
walls, alleviating problems with constipation,"unsightly build-up," and blockage. And
its soluble fiber soaks up water, so that loose stools and diarrhea are avoided.
When you’ve got both kinds of fiber working in perfect balance, as is the case with
salba, food moves through your digestive tract and bowel calmly and cleanly. The
fiber also slows down your digestion, so your body has a chance to absorb more
nutrients, and you feel full longer—which helps with weight management. It also
works to even out your absorption of carbohydrates, so your cells get a slow, smooth
supply of fuel, and no blood sugar spikes.
*Wayne Coates, PhD, professor emeritus at the University of Arizona, says "It's (chia)
the world's healthiest whole food." Even Oprah's resident physician Dr. Oz has
gotten on the band wagon and recommended salba as a way to "fuel your workout...
and help restore energy levels, decrease inflammation because of their omega-3
fatty acids, and, more important, help stabilize blood sugar levels."
And salba’s flavor is neutral, so it “disappears” when you stir it into your favorite
breakfast food or smoothie. You can also mix it into baked goods, casseroles, and
more. It has a shelf life of 5 years, and even if you grind it, it stays fresh in the
refrigerator for up to 3 months. But it’s only the white strain of the grain/seed, and not
the black, that happens to possess all of these extra special health-giving
properties, so be sure that’s the type you buy.
(Swanson now carries this super grain—at one of the best prices around.)
* To add chia power to your diet, Coates suggests a contemporary Mexican take: the
refreshing drink known as chia fresca. Mix 6 ozs. of cold filtered or spring water, a
squirt of lemon or lime juice, a tsp. of chia seeds, and sugar, honey, or agave (to
taste) in a glass. Wait a few minutes for the chia seeds to turn slightly gelatinous
(similar to tapioca). The result? Something oddly refreshing!
