I am blown away by the stories I hear about Mila and how this superfood is positively affecting and changing people’s health. The range is huge… Mila has improved and in many cases completely transformed everything from allergies to insomnia, autism, ADHD, high cholesterol, constipation, MS, PMS, diabetes, joint pain, thyroid issues, heart disease, weight gain, eczema, migrains etc… and this is just to name a few. . Due to this powerhouse blend of the top seeds loaded with Omega-3′s, Fiber, Protein, Antioxidants, Phytonutrients, Vitamins and Minerals all working together, Mila has been a huge blessing for many of us, where other chia brands have not worked on this level. Here are the top 6 health benefits I that hear regularly: . 1) Weight Loss: Many people who consume Mila are experiencing weight loss. When Mila is absorbed in liquid before eating, it becomes gelatinous and can help make you feel full. It has also been known to slow the absorption of sugar, balance blood sugar, eliminate cholesterol, clean out the digestive tract, increase energy and lift mood which all may contribute to weight loss. Try drinking a glass of Mila that has been soaked in water before meals to help you fill up and eat less food overall. 2) Improved Mood and Mental Clarity: Omega-3 essential fatty acids in the proper ratio (3 Omega-3′s to 1 Omega-6) which are abundant in Mila are well known for helping with depression, mood enhancement and overall improved brain function. 3) Healthy Digestion: Mila is loaded with soluble and insoluble fiber which are extremely important for keeping digestion regular and preventing diseases such as diverticulitis, diverticulosis, crohn’s, constipation and others. With fast paced lifestyles steering people towards highly processed foods, people are consuming less healthy fiber. One scoop of Mila pre-soaked in liquid can help hydrate the colon, clean out the digestive system and assist with regular bowel movements. The cleaner the colon, the easier it is for other healthy nutrients to absorb and be utilized by the body. 4) Increased Sustained Energy, Stamina and Endurance: Mila is a super high complete protein source containing the full spectrum of essential amino acids which is not as easy to find in a whole plant source. This protein combined with the vitamins, minerals, Omega-3′s and powerful phytonutrients work together to boost energy and also increase endurance and stamina. The gel forming property of Mila aids in slowing the conversion of carbohydrates to sugar and sustaining blood sugar levels which helps to extend endurance. Chia seeds were a staple food of the Aztec warriors and were considered a “running food” by the Tarahumara Indians who would sometimes run 100 miles at once. 5) Healthy Heart: Again it’s the magic of the Omega-3′s which help reduce blood pressure and risk of developing blood clots and the soluble fiber which help reduce “bad” cholesterol. 6) Healthy Aging and Immune Boosting: Mila is loaded with antioxidants and phytonutrients helping to fight free radical damage from the environment which promotes premature aging. It also helps flush toxins, boost immune system, improve skin, hair and nails, AND acts as a very powerful anti-inflammatory. The Omega-3′s help relieve joint pain and muscle soreness while also helping to prevent disease. greenyourspirit/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/newmila_foldout2_112.jpg What is so important about Omega-3′s? Omega-3′s are essential fatty acids that our bodies do not produce on their own, so we need to get them from food, and we need them everyday to function optimally. 95% of people are very deficient in Omega-3′s – some symptoms may include fatigue, dry skin, poor memory, mood swings, joint pain, depression, heart problems, poor circulation etc. Many researchers believe that low grade inflammation is the root of most disease including heart disease, diabetes, alzheimer’s, arthritis, cancer etc. Most diets have an over abundance of Omega-6′s which come from refined vegetable oils, processed foods and fast foods which are pro-inflammatory at those levels. Omega-3′s in the proper ratio 3:1 (like Mila) act as a powerful anti-inflammatory. It is generally recommended to reduce our Omega-6 intake and increase our Omega-3 intake until reaching a balance of 3:1 (Three Omega-3′s to one Omega-6). Mila has the perfect balance of powerful Omega-3′s to 6′s in a highly absorbable plant based form that can help keep inflammation under control while also decreasing processed foods and increasing whole plant-based foods. How much Mila is recommended daily? Listen to your body. Most people start out with one or two scoops per day (one scoop is 2 tablespoons) and see how they feel. Some people with health imbalances or who want to lose weight may consume more until their body is back in balance. Mila has no flavor and is easy to mix into foods adding a powerhouse of nutrients to your meals. Try adding Mila to smoothies, dips and dressings, or check out Seed For Change for more recipe ideas. If you have digestive problems, definitely start by soaking Mila in some form of liquid for 5 minutes or more before consuming for best results. Stay hydrated!
