Bresson JL, Flynn A, Heinonen M, et al. Opinion on the safety of Chia seeds ( Salvia hispanica L.) and ground whole Chia seeds, as a food ingredient. J Eur Food Safety Authority. 2009; 996:1–26. [ Google Scholar] A large Chinese cohort of more than 63,000 individuals found that those with the highest intakes of omega-3 fatty acids from seafood and plant sources had a 17% reduced risk of cardiovascular mortality compared with those who had the lowest intakes. [3] Few cohort studies include ALA plant sources of omega-3, but these oils are fairly common in the Asian diet. The Nurses’ Health Study found a 40% reduced risk of sudden cardiac death in women who ate the highest amounts of ALA. [4] The Cardiovascular Health Study cohort with more than 5000 men and women, ages 65 years and older, found a 50% lower risk of fatal ischemic heart disease with higher intakes of ALA. [5] Food sources of ALA in these studies included whole grains, cooking oils, legumes, and soy. Kumavat S.D., Chaudhari Y.S., Borole P., Mishra P., Shenghani K., Duvvuri P.

Chia Sprouts: Place chia seeds in a single layer (use only about a teaspoon to allow enough space to grow) in a terracotta saucer or unglazed clay dish. Spray the seeds with water several times and cover with plastic wrap or a clear glass dish. Put in a sunny spot. Spray morning and evening until green sprouts appear, about 3-7 days. Use these microgreens to garnish salads and sandwiches. Pigments present in the non-stripped and stripped chia oilseed samples were determined by measuring the absorbance at 550–710 for chlorophylls and 430–460 nm for carotenoids (Abuzaytoun and Shahidi 2006a). The samples were dissolved in hexane (1:1, v/v) and placed in quartz cuvettes. The absorbance was subsequently read using an 8453A UV-visible Agilent spectrophotometer (Palo Alto, CA, USA). Determination of tocopherols According to Campo et al. (2017) the gums have negative zeta potential because they contain carboxylic acid groups. In emulsions with a pH below 2, positive loads increase in zeta potential measurements, and when the pH value is above 2, negative loads increase in measurements. In our study, the pH value of all 12 emulsion samples varied between 4.37 and 4.74 and it is suitable for zeta potential measurements since the pH value is over 2. Wanasundara, U. N., & Shahidi, F.

Solubility of curcumin in chia seed oil was measured spectrophotometrically. Curcumin and chia seed oil mixture was diluted by 1/200 and absorption was measured at 428nm. Curcumin/chia oil solutions prepared at different concentrations and the maximum solubility amount of curcumin in chia seed oil was calculated as 0.77mg curcumin/mL chia seed oil based on the absorption curve.One 4-week weight loss study on high protein diets and overweight people found that high-protein diets resulted in more weight loss than a low-protein diet. 7 González A., Martínez M.L., Paredes A.J., León A.E., Ribotta P.D.

Borneo R, Aguirre A, León AE. Chia ( Salvia hispanica L) gel can be used as egg or oil replacer in cake formulations. J Am Diet Assoc. 2010; 110:946–949. doi: 10.1016/j.jada.2010.03.011. [ PubMed] [ CrossRef] [ Google Scholar]In recent years, people have become more aware of the impact of diet on health ( Us-Medina, Julio, Segura-Campos, Ixtaina, & Tomás et al., 2018). Therefore, they are in search of food products enriched with compounds which are good for health ( Julio et al., 2015). Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are well-known to have health-promoting effects ( Timilsena, Adhikari, Barrow, & Adhikari, 2017). Of the PUFA family, omega-3 and omega-6 essential fatty acids (EFAs) need to be taken by diet since they cannot be synthesized in the human body ( Timilsena, Adhikari, Barrow, & Adhikari, 2016; Us-Medina, Julio, Segura-Campos, Ixtaina, & Tomás, 2018). Fish oils are commonly consumed as omega-3 fatty acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), source. Vegetable oils having high EFA content are increasing in popularity compared to fish oils since there are controversies about fish oil usage and vegan people cannot consume fish oils ( Timilsena, Adhikari, et al., 2017). For this reason, fortification of functional foods with plant based-omega-3 fatty acids are becoming an attractive option in the food industry ( Julio et al., 2015). As a possible source of these components, chia seed contains satisfactorily high amounts of omega-3 PUFAs compared to other plant sources ( Marineli et al., 2014).
