Salba® (Salvia hispanica L.) is grown under strictly controlled conditions in the fertile soil of Peru using traditional and cutting edge agricultural techniques creating a nutritional consistency that is not found in any other varietal of chia. Salba® is not treated chemically in any way prior to sowing, and there are NO pesticides applied at any time. Salba® is allowed to ripen naturally before harvesting and is not subjected to any chemical treatments post-harvest. Packed full of vital vitamins, minerals, fiber, and essential fatty acids, Salba® is ideal for boosting physical activity, increasing the nutrient intake of aging populations, on-the-go meals, adolescents and children, women’s health, weight loss, vegetarians, gluten free, and other specialty diets. Salba® has been investigated at the Risk Factor Modification Center, St.Michael's Hospital, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada, by Dr. Vladimir Vuksan, Professor of Endocrinology and Nutritional Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, in randomized, acute and long-term studies. In the acute study, Salba® reduced after-meal blood glucose and plasma insulin levels, compared to control. In a long-term trial (12 weeks), Salba® reduced blood pressure, the major cardiovascular risk factor in individuals with Type 2 Diabetes. In the same study, Salba® proved to be effective with respect to reduction in inflammation and coagulation factors. These unexpected clinical results indicate the great health potential of Salba® as a functional food, to be used as a novel agent in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease. Salba’s low flavor profile makes it an excellent addition to any food. Add 1 level tablespoon sprinkled on your cereal, blended in a smoothie, mixed in yogurt or baked in your favorite recipe. The possibilities are endless! Salba® really is “Nature’s Perfect Whole Food”™! Visit www.salbasmart.com for more information, benefits, recipes, and products made with Salba®.
