Brands I trust and recommend to my patients, friends and family members: Certified Chia Seeds - this is probably the oldest brand around I have been personally using their products for years and I can vouch for their quality. The only problem with them is that due to their popularity they are often out of stock. Their official website is http://certifiedchiaseeds.com Salvia hispanica, a plant native to South and Central America, produces the Chia seeds. These seeds can be used as medicine and also as food and were once valued so much by the Aztecs that they used the seeds as currency.
