Get your Omega3s with a Salba Smoothie

Credit: Salba

I've written about Salba before and am a fan of it since it contains a great amount of plant-based Omega 3's (2740mg of Omega 3 per 12g serving) and Calcium (92.4mg of calcium per 12g serving). Flaxseed is also one of my favorite plant-based Omega 3 sources. Omega 3 is the name given to a family of polyunsaturated fatty acids and is used in the formation of cell walls and improves circulation and oxygen uptake with proper red blood cell flexibility and function. More nutrient information is here. In addition to seed, tortilla chips, pretzels, potato chips, and salsa are available. A Salba Smoothie recipe is also here.
