      I have been noticing how much Chia seeds have been making it onto the healthy section into many lifestyles. This is apparently our new superfood and they are being included in energy bars and just sold separately to add to salads and such.

      They are even known to help with weight loss which I found very interesting.

      What are your thoughts on them?

      Omega-3 in plant foods is not easily converted in the body, it is not the same as the omega-3 in meat, eggs and fish.

      It's certainly not a super food, just another groundless fad.
