Chia Seeds Are Like Magic!

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are among the healthiest foods on the planet. They are loaded with nutrients that can have important benefits for your body and brain. Chia seeds aren’t just for those following plant based diet, but anyone who wants to boost their intake of nutrients.

Salvia hispanica, commonly known as chia (/ˈtʃiːə/), is a species of flowering plant in the mint family, Lamiaceae, native to central and southern Mexico and Guatemala. The 16th-century Codex Mendoza provides evidence that it was cultivated by the Aztec in pre-Columbian times; economic historians have suggested it was as important as maize as a food crop. Ground or whole chia seeds are still used in Paraguay, Bolivia, Argentina, Mexico, and Guatemala for nutritious drinks and as a food source.

Chia seeds are rich in nutrients and fiber.

Despite their small size, chia seeds are full of important nutrients.

They are an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, rich in antioxidants, and they provide fiber, iron, and calcium.

Omega-3 fatty acids help raise HDL cholesterol, the "good" cholesterol that protects against heart attack and stroke.

Remember the chia pets that were popular in the 1990s? Chia seeds are the same small seeds you used to grow an Afro in your Homer Simpson terracotta vase.

Here are some key points about chia seeds. 

Chia seeds are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, antioxidants, iron, and calcium.
A 28-gram, or 1-ounce, serving of chia seeds also contains 5.6 grams of protein.
Mixed with water, they can replace egg in vegan cooking.
Chia seeds can be eaten cooked or raw, but they should be added to another food or soaked before eating.

Nutritional content

According to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Nutrient Database, a 28-gram, or one-ounce serving of chia seeds contains:

131 calories
8.4 grams of fat
13.07 grams of carbohydrate
11.2 grams of fiber
5.6 grams of protein
No sugar
Eating once ounce of chia seeds each day would provide 18 percent of daily calcium needs, 27 percent of phosphorus, 30 percent of manganese, and smaller amounts of potassium and copper.

Chia seeds provide more omega-3s, calcium, phosphorus, and fiber than flaxseeds. Most people do not consume enough of these essential nutrients.

Kalawalla - The Most Powerful Herb.

Kalawalla Herb

.... known as the most powerful herb. 

Kalawalla is designed for autoimmune disorders to help regulate your immune system, bringing it to its healthiest, strongest levels ever!

Kalawalla helps to balance your immune system.  A real solution to autoimmune disorders is to modulate (not suppress) the activity of T cell ratios to normal balance without any side effects. Immune modulation has the advantage that, contrary to immune suppression, very few side effects can be observed from regulating the immune system back to normal. It also offers the advantage over symptomatic drugs in that the symptoms reverse themselves on their own after the immune system has reached proper balance, and this is done treating the root of the problem, and not only the symptoms.

Kalawalla has many Clinical Studies with MS, Lupus, Psoriasis, Vitiligo and other autoimmune disorders, showing a high degree of success and very few side effects. It even has an OTC status in the European Union, which means that medical doctors actually prescribe Kalawalla for these disorders. We also know exactly how Kalawalla works due to Trials by the Harvard Medical School that details how Kalawalla modulates the T cells and its usefulness in auto aggressive and inflammatory conditions.  It also helps to balance the immune system, and as a secondary response helps to improve skin disorders, such as psoriasis.

Kalawalla Benefits:

• Protects against all types of psoriasis
• Regulates immune system
• 100% All-Natural Supplement
• Protects brain cells
• Cleanses blood
• Protects skin cells
• Fights free radicals

Spelt

Spelt is an ancient grain widely recognized for its many health benefits. Triticum spelta, as it was originally named in Latin, is a hardier and more nutritious cousin to modern wheat (Triticum aestivum). One of the earliest domesticated grains, spelt hasn’t changed since Biblical times. It remains unaffected by concepts such as ‘agribusiness’, ‘cross-breeding,’ ‘hybridization’ and ‘genetically modified’ - words that have come to dominate our modern food supply. Known for its slightly ‘nutty’ flavor, Spelt has long been popular as a health food in Europe. Spelt is the ultimate health food grain! It is an excellent (better than whole wheat!) source of:

• Protein
•  Fiber
•  Complex Carbohydrates
•  B Vitamins 
•  Manganese and Magnesium
•  Niacin, Thiamine and Copper

Spelt contains gluten, but it is a much more digestible form of gluten than is found in its more modern cousin, wheat. Spelt is also highly water-soluble - which means that all of its wonderful nutrients are easily absorbed by the body.

There are many spelt products available, including pasta, cereals, granola, pretzels and sesame sticks. Spelt flour can also be purchased and substituted for modern ‘common’ wheat flour to make breads, pasta, cookies, crackers, cakes, muffins, cereals, pancakes and waffles.

Dr. Sebi teaches, It is no surprise that many people have “wheat-allergies”, because wheat is not a natural grain; it is a hybrid product created by science and it is acid-based.  Natural Growing Grains are alkaline-based; it is recommended that you consume the following instead of Wheat:

Amaranth
Black Rice
Kamut
Quinoa
Rye
Spelt
Tef
Wild Rice

These grains can be found at Whole Foods
Market (or any health food store) in the form
of breads, flours, pastas and cereals.
