CHIA OIL

Polyunsaturated fatty acids (omega3) can be of animal or vegetable origin. Of the latter, the chia seed stands out for its richness in polyunsaturated fatty acids. Studies reveal that omega 3 fatty acids contribute to normalizing cholesterol and triglyceride levels and to maintaining the flexibility of veins and arteries.

WHAT NUTRITIONAL HABITS DO YOU NEED TO INCORPORATE INTO YOUR DIET?

Hydration

Water represents about 70% of our body. It is an essential element for the normal development of all physiological processes, such as digestion in the absorption and elimination of metabolic wastes, and for the functioning of the circulatory system since water is part of our blood.

Fruit and vegetables

The World Health Organization has established the need to eat fruit and vegetables every day since they contain the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants necessary to protect our health and prevent diseases. Two vegetable dishes and three pieces of fruit a day are recommended.

Salt

The World Health Organization recommends reducing our salt intake to prevent the risk of hypertension, which is one of the main risk factors for heart disease. Eliminating the salt shaker from the table, cooking with less salt and reducing the consumption of canned food is a good way to achieve this goal.

Fiber

Consumption of dietary fiber, which can be found mainly in fruit, vegetables, whole grains and legumes, prevents constipation. Fiber also provides other health benefits, such as helping to maintain a healthy weight and reducing the risk of diabetes.

Supplements

Food supplements are products specially designed to supplement the incorporation of nutrients when it is not possible to follow an ideal diet; this could be due to a particular physiological condition requiring the extra contribution of a nutrient.
