Are you already living the vegetarian lifestyle? If
so, you’ve no-doubt considered the protein
issue. The human body needs protein to
survive and thrive. For most people, that
protein comes from meat, and when you stop
eating it, you’ve got to think of other choices.
Many plant-sources such as nuts, seeds and soy
products provide some. But then, you’re faced
with having to eat a certain thing every day, or
face getting sick.
It’s a serious consideration for any vegetarian.
Many of the plant-proteins are incomplete,
meaning you have to combine foods, eating
certain things together in order to properly
replicate inside the body the protein found in
animal sources. And what if you don’t like tofu?
Not everyone is going to like it, and it has such
a reputation of being “essential” in the
vegetarian lifestyle, that it keeps many people
from ever trying it. Plus, with the emerging
studies concluding that “too much soy” isn’t
good for men, it further puts the issue on the
fence.
This new discovery will help any vegetarian
achieve a proper amount of complete protein,
and make the lifestyle more attractive to any
carnivore who is considering it. More tofu
recipes? A new way to eat beans? No!
This is an all natural, 100% plant source of
complete protein. The catch? It tastes like ANY-
thing you want, and you can eat it without any
preparation at all. Sound too good to be true?

Chia seeds are small and
have no flavor of their
own. Just 1 tablespoon per
day is all you need!
How easy is it to use?
MySeedsChia Seeds are actually one of the easiest things you can
possibly add to your diet, whether it’s vegetarian or not. It’s as simple
as sprinkling them onto anything you already like to eat or drink. Chia
Seeds don’t have a flavor of their own. Instead, they distribute the
flavors of food or drink that you add them to. This property lets them
take on the taste of that food, or amplify the flavor of liquids.
(Meaning when you cook with them, the food will actually taste
better!)
The answer is Chia Seeds.
The Chia Seed is actually a Superfood. It was lost for centuries, ever
since the ancient Aztecs used its super-nutrition for their armies. With
the ability to keep people feeling full, and being 23% protein by
weight, it isn’t any wonder they were able to conquer so many lands.
Every tiny seed was a powerhouse of nutrition, vitamins and essential
omega-3 oils. And now, its power can easily be in your hands.
For example, you could sprinkle them onto: breakfast cereal, yogurt,
oatmeal, ice cream, juice, milk, pizza, salad dressing, pasta,
sandwiches….really, anything that’s moist enough to get the seeds to
stick to the surface. You can also prepare them as “Chia Gel” (soaking
the seeds in filtered water for 15 minutes will produce a thick gelatin
like substance that will substitute for butter in recipes) and then add it
as a moist ingredient to food or drinks.
Without the soy estrogens, it’s safe for men to consume any amount.
It truly is a “Green Food”! The plant makes an oil in its stems and
leaves that insects and other pests can’t stand, so there’s no need for
chemicals or additives. The anti oxidants in the seeds keep the oils
fresh so there's no need for preservatives. It is also one of the few
plant-sources that provide complete protein like that found in meat.
For vegetarians, Omega-3 oil is also an issue. Its primary source is in
fish. Omega-3 rich diets adopted by cultures who eat a lot of fish, such
as the Japanese and Greek Islanders, have been proven to reduce
heart-disease risk, lower cholesterol, and lessen arthritis. However, if
you don’t want to sacrifice fish, or even if you don’t like the idea of
eating fish many days of the week, Chia seeds are the answer once
again!
Chia is rich in Omega-3 oil, as well as calcium. In fact, it has six times
the calcium (by weight) as milk. With Chia seed in the house, you
won’t have to worry about harming the ocean or eating fishy flavors.
With the oceans in danger, and some of the fish even absorbing
poisons, now is the right time to turn to alternate omega-3 sources.
