I think the first time I've heard of chia seeds is from a Dr.Oz episode. He mentioned how this is a great superfood. Superfoods are foods that are nutrient powerhouses. They're fully packed of nutrients, vitamins and minerals, and chia seeds are fortified with proteins, antioxidants, calcium and nutrients like Omega-3 fatty acids.
I hate taking vitamin supplements, and since these were tasteless, I easily just add these seeds to my oatmeal or sandwich or make a yummy chocolate pudding with it. A few years back, I had put myself on a strict diet (not now, not anymore), and I read how this will help with weight loss as well. It helps you to feel full, eat less and shed pounds! I still am adding this to my oatmeal or any meals I have but not as often as I did before. I do like how this keeps me full so I'm not craving for an unhealthy snack mid-day.
Besides the great health benefits chia seeds have, I was very excited when I found out one of my favorite drugstore haircare brands, HASK has incorporated it to their new haircare collection,
HASK Chia Seed Oil Volumizing Collection
My hair has been very flat and even after cutting two inches off it. My fine hair just doesn't have that pizzazz it has before. Maybe age and my acne medication (aldactone prescription) has something to do with it but if this haircare collection can give me va-va-voom volume without all the harsh ingredients then why not try it out right?
Not only does the Omega-3 fatty acids in the chia seeds can fight depression and anxiety; fight inflammation and autoimmune diseases; lowering our risk of getting a heart attack; improve eye health. It will also boost shine, increase volume and lock-in moisture without weighing the hair down.
The HASK Chia Seed Oil Collection are formulated with HydraBoost that helps enhance and enrich your strands after every use, and the chia seeds used were cultivated from South America. Like all other HASK products these are free of sulfates, parabens, pthalates, gluten, drying alcohol and artificial colors.
The first thing I've noticed with the HASK Chia Seed Shampoo & Conditioner is it's so-fresh-and-so-clean scent. This scent also lingers on after washing your hair. I usually just air dry my hair and so I'm not sure how much volume you'll have if you blow dry and style after.
I don't think this gave me that much volume after air-drying but my hair looks shinier and healthier than before.
