Benefits of Chia Seed

Assalamualaikum,

Saya baru dua bulan mengambil chia seed dalam pemakanan saya dan baru 3 minggu mengambilnya secara konsisten. Saya rasa ramai yang dah tau kebaikan chia seed ni kan? Especially yang rajin juicing dan letak chia seed dalam juice. (Haii Kekda :D).

Dulu saya rasa susah nak jumpa chia seed ni. Kat Cold Storage pun kadang-kadang ada, kadang-kadang tiada. Tanya dengan Kekda (http://puanstoberi.blogspot.com/) , katanya kat Jaya Grocer ada. Tapi saya malas sangat nak pergi PJ sana semata-mata nak beli chia seed. Entah macam mana few months back ada laa satu hari tu saya singgah MBG nak beli buah. Tengok-tengok, eh ada jual chia seed. Organic chia seed. Siap ada jual dalam bekas kecil RM1 sahaja. Saya beli yang kecil dulu, 2 bekas. Balik rumah saya try. Ok, tasteless. Rasa macam biji selasih pun ada. Tapi chia seed dengan biji selasih adalah dua benda yang berbeza. Lepas dah habis, saya pergi beli bekas besar. RM 19.90. Sekarang dah masuk bekas kedua. Hehe.

Ini rupa bekasnya ye kawan-kawan :)

Apa kebaikan chia seed ni? Banyak sangat kebaikannya. Antaranya kandungan Omega 3 yang sangat tinggi dalam chia seed.

Apa pula kebaikan chia seed for infertility? It can be used as natural fertility enhancer. Saya share sikit apa yang saya dapat hasil daripada google. Hehe.
 

"Chia seeds are South American natural fertility enhancers. These tiny seeds are packed with omega 3 fatty acids, protein and fiber. This seed is another tool for stabilizing blood sugar to use against PCOS. Chia seeds are also very high in zinc, a mineral critical for men’s fertility. Chia seeds are high in protein and fiber, making them very filling. Chia seeds are traditionally rehydrated in liquid and served as a drink called agua fresca. Blended into a smoothie, their mild flavor vanishes. They can be soaked in sweetened milk to make a pudding similar to tapioca pudding. Chia seeds are tasteless cooked with hot cereal. If they are rehydrated before cooking, they can be blended into moist foods without being noticed."                                                                                           http://natural-fertility-prescription.com/natural-fertility-enhancer

"This tiny little black seed provides a fabulous source of Omega 3 and healing for our bodies. This source of Omega 3 provides healing for Endometriosis as it balances out the Omega 3 to 6 ratio. Most of us have an imbalance of too much Omega 6 fats in the body. This imbalance creates an inflammatory reaction and with Endometriosis this is really noticeable!The Chia Seed is also loaded with minerals and vitamins and includes some great anti-oxidants like Quercetin and Myricetin. Chia Seeds also provide a great remedy for digestive troubles. Many women with Endometriosis also experience symptoms of IBS. Chia Seeds provide a mucus layer for the intestinal wall and help heal Leaky Gut Syndrome – a condition very common with women with Endometriosis."                          - http://www.naturalfertilityandwellness.com/3-foods-endometriosis/

Sebenarnya, banyak lagi kebaikan chia seed. Kalau nak tau lebih details, feel free to visit this site http://eatingwithpurpose.com/2011/10/chia-seeds/

Oleh kerana saya tak rajin nak juicing, maka saya akan letak 1 sudu kecil chia seed dalam segelas air kosong. Kadang-kadang saya biarkan 10 ke 15 minit dan minum. Kadang-kadang saya biar semalaman dalam peti sejuk. Esok paginya baru saya minum. Kalau dibiar semalaman, campuran tadi akan lebih pekat sebab chia seed dah mengembang dan jadi seperti gel. Pergi kerja tak payah breakfast dah sebab memang kenyang. Hehe. Mungkin sebab itulah antara satu lagi kebaikan chia seed adalah untuk weight loss. So, meh kita tengok saya boleh kurus ke tak dengan chia seed. Haha. Losing weight is my neverending battle. Haihh.

Apa yang saya rasa lepas rajin minum chia seed water? Saya rasa bertenaga dan cepat kenyang. Ada yang kata chia seed bagus untuk rambut dan gigi. Rambut saya memang gugur dengan jayanya. Sekarang pun masih ada rambut gugur. Tapi dah semakin kurang. Maybe kesan pengambilan chia seed kot. Wallahualam. Tapi kan, ni saya nak pesan ni. Lepas minum chia seed water, jangan lupa berkumur atau gosok gigi tau. Sebab nanti mesti ada biji-biji hitam ni melekat celah gigi. Saya sudah mengalaminya. Haha!

Ok, bye!
