Chia seed extract ( Salvia Hispanica Seed Extract) from controlled organic cultivation

Chia seeds - a natural energy booster from ancient cultures

Chia seeds, already valued by the Maya, Aztecs, and other ancient Andean peoples of South America, were considered a valuable source of starch and energy. The name "chia" means strength in the Mayan language and refers to the vitalizing effect of the seeds. Today we know that chia seeds are a particularly valuable source of nutrients and are among the most powerful natural superfoods.

With an impressive 23% protein/keratin content, chia seeds are extremely rich in antioxidants, minerals, and vitamins. They are the richest plant-based source of essential omega-3 fatty acids and offer 30% higher antioxidant content than many other superfoods, such as blueberries. In addition to vitamin E (tocopherols), provitamin A, and vitamins B1, B2, and B3, chia seeds also contain valuable minerals such as magnesium, iron, zinc, potassium, and molybdenum. These nutrients not only promote skin health but also strengthen hair and ensure more resilient strands.

Benefits for skin and hair

The polyunsaturated alpha-linolenic acid contained in chia seeds promotes a smooth, healthy complexion, combats blemishes and acne, and strengthens the skin barrier. Vitamin B3 (niacin) has also been shown to have powerful anti-inflammatory properties and helps soothe irritated skin. It helps relieve redness, flaking, and eczema and supports skin cell regeneration.

The natural zinc content of chia seeds has antibacterial properties and regulates sebum production. At the same time, it promotes cell regeneration and helps minimize skin imperfections. Studies demonstrate improved skin elasticity with regular use of chia seed extract, resulting in visibly firmer and revitalized skin.

Care for skin and hair

The highly dispersing, dry oil contained in chia seeds is quickly absorbed by the skin and leaves a non-greasy feeling. It protects the skin from moisture loss and has a healing effect on skin irritations. In hair care, chia seed oil strengthens the hair structure, adds shine, and protects against breakage.

Gentle CO2 extraction for maximum effect

Our ultrapure organic chia seed extract is extracted without the use of solvents and using natural carbon dioxide. This gentle method preserves the delicate bioactive ingredients in their natural composition and ensures optimal efficacy.
