Mayans and Aztecs were big fans of chia seeds; they felt that they could boost their energy levels, improve their stamina, and bolster their strength. In fact, in Mayan, chia means “strength.” Centuries on, and chia seeds are once again being hailed for their potential health benefits, and also their versatility and nutty taste. In 2023, the chia seed market was valued at $203 million, and by 2033, it’s predicted to surge to more than $390 million.
