Throughout history civilizations have had their share of disease and that included the Ancient Aztec people who out of survival developed a grain so powerful in it’s healing properties that at one point it was valuable enough to be used as currency and was used as their most sacred of offerings to their Gods.

The grain Salvia Hispanica L - or Salba as it is more commonly known today - was almost lost forever because of the Conquistadors savage overthrow of the Aztec civilization.  But to our great fortune and wonderful thanks to two Agentininan brothers who rediscovered and cultivated the seeds in 1991 and now the grain’s recovery is for sure guaranteed.

Gram for gram Salba has 8 times the Omega 3 fatty acids that Salmon, 6 times more Calcium than whole milk, 3 times more antioxidants than fresh blueberries, and more protein than soy with a higher quality protein base.

Salba is rich in fiber, calcium, magnesium, vitamins A,B2,B3,B6,C and Thiamin. It also has 17 additional fatty acids, 16 different amino acids, 20 mineral and trace elements all extremely beneficial to the body.

The omega 3 fatty acids found in Salba can aide in the flushing out of free radicals found to be harmful to the human body, aides in the improvement of digestion, getting rid of diarrhea, constipation, bowel discomfort, bloating and gas.

Weight lose is almost assured with Salba because the grain expands in the stomach giving one that fullness feeling for several hours squelching the hunger pains.

The protein in Salba can give your bones and muscles a huge boost too because of the natural proteins so easily digestible.

Salba is all natural , a non allergenic, gluten free and non GMO, in fact, Salba contains more than 30 nutrients in their purest forms thereby letting the body absorb all the nutrients more readily.
