Chia seeds are the edible seeds of Salvia hispanica, a flowering plant in the mint family Lamiaceae. Chia seeds are oval and grey with black and white spots. These seeds are hygroscopic, absorbing up to 12 times their weight in liquid when soaked and developing a mucilaginous coating that gives chia-based foods and beverages a distinctive gel texture. They are known for rich source of essential nutrients.
