What’s The Skinny on the Super Seeds?  Chia Seeds vs. Flax Seeds

Both chia seeds and flax seeds top the list of superfoods. They are both easy to add to your salads or smoothies for a nutritional punch.  But is one better than the other?  Let’s compare.

Also, both are good sources of calcium, phosphorus, iron, magnesium, zinc, and copper.

Depending on what source you check out, either could win out. If you had to choose based on the above comparison, it looks like chia seeds win out, but not by a landslide. Use both. Each have their own nutritional benefits and are an easy addition to your healthy diet where variety is key.
