HEALTH BENEFITS & FUN FACTS
Chia seeds are championed as a superfood and provide an abundance of healthy omega-3 fatty acids (even more then flax seeds).

They help bolster the immune system and will give you the energy boost you need to start your day. Along with supplying protein, fiber, B vitamins and antioxidants, whole wheat has been shown to reduce the risk of heart disease and improve bowel health.

Studies consistently show that women who regularly consume whole wheat flour tend to weigh less than those who consume the same amount of white flour.

The old fashioned oats in this pancake recipe will give you an added dose of soluble fiber and avenanthramides, an antioxidant compound unique to oats that helps prevent free radicals from damaging LDL cholesterol.
