AHD International ~ Chia Seeds

AHD International, Atlanta, a distributor of new-to-market nutraceutical and functional food ingredients, is now offering Chia Seeds to its customers worldwide. Chia seeds are a gluten free, vegetarian whole food naturally rich in omega-3 and -6 essential fatty acids, dietary fiber, antioxidants, calcium, protein, amino acids, as well as a comprehensive range of nutrients, vitamins and minerals. Unlike grains such as flaxseed, they are highly stable due to their antioxidant content, offering manufacturers an ingredient that not only delivers superior nutritional properties, but also won't compromise the shelf life of finished goods.
These natural super seeds can be used in a variety of functional food applications including cereals, breads, soups, salad dressings and nutrition bars. Chia seeds can also be mixed with water to create a nutritious gel that can be added to beverages such as smoothies, juices and herbal teas.
