Seeds are nutritional powerhouses, and when consumed as part of a healthy diet, they have an array of nutritional benefits. Seeds are so versatile, and can be used in a variety of meals.
These are my top picks for seeds to include in your everyday diet:
Chia Seeds are rich in fiber and Omega 3 fats, and are a great addition to smoothies, or even a delicious Chia Pudding.
Flax seeds are the richest source of pant-based omega 3 fatty acids in the world. Add a tablespoon of ground Flax seeds to your breakfast everyday, the benefits include improved digestion, clear skin, lower cholesterol, and so much more!
Pumpkin seeds are a great snack on their own, but can also add a delicious crunch to salads, pasta’s and breads. Not only do they taste good, they are fulled with free-radical scavenging antioxidants, which give your health an additional boost.
Quinoa is a complete protein and a fantastic wheat-free alternative. It’s a great addition to your diet for it’s high fiber content, and it stands in for grains such as rice or oatmeal.
Sunflower seeds are a delicious, sweet and nutty snack. A source of essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, these are great to keep for an on-the-go snack.
