It can last 2-3 days in the fridge.

Benefits

Chia seeds: The word “chia†translates to the Mayan word for “strength†since it was used by warriors to gain more stamina and strength.

Chia seeds are very high in Omega-3 fatty acids. In fact, chia seeds contain more Omega-3s than salmon, gram for gram. Scientists examined the safety, active ingredients, and health benefits of chia.

High levels of phenolic acid were found in chia seeds, with 60 percent containing omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid and 20 percent containing omega-6. These properties present the potential to prevent diabetes, obesity, heart problems, and help maintain healthy serum lipid (blood sugar) levels in individuals. Omega-3 and omega-6 oils are essential for optimal health and cannot be produced within the body, necessitating their intake from an external source. Additionally, hens fed chia seed meal produced eggs with the highest omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid content compared to hens fed flaxseed or rapeseed.
