Chia seeds come from the plant Salvia hispanica, which is native to Central and South America. This plant is a member of the mint family (Lamiaceae). Chia seeds have been consumed for thousands of years and were a staple food in the diets of ancient civilizations such as the Aztecs and Mayans. The word “chia” is derived from the Nahuatl word “chian,” meaning oily, which refers to the rich oil content in the seeds. Now it is produced by farmers in Uganda.
