Is salba the same as chia seed?

Yes. 'Salba' is the brand name for white chia seeds. There is a claim that the white seeds are a super-powerhouse grain, however, studies show that the darker seeds are just as good. Use an organically grown chia.


Are BenVia Gold the same as Salba?

Yes. ben via gold and salba are marketing creations for the simple and highly nutritious chia seed. It is merely a way to market and sell the chia seed for a higher price. Forget about it. Buy Chia seed by looking on line for he best price. It is all the same. white chia seed is salba. No difference nutritionally. Chia seed comes with mixed white and black seed. All the same. It is just a money makers scheme. Don't believe for one minute that salba or ben via gold is better. Forget that the statement is coming from a doctor and any so called expert. i am a doctor and a nutritional "expert" also and I tell you its is the same. For your future information an expert is anyone who lectures more than 200 miles from their home. Thats me.

Is BenVia Gold the same as Salba?

One user said:They are all one and the same --CHIA seed an over emphasized seed---that if not crushed or pulverized will cause a great deal of duress in the colon---have had several people use this based on the sales and hype---sprout it and consume the sprouts this will be a better way to use this with out the duressSeeds this small should be pulverized to a powder and from there use in light amounts due to the constipation they can cause as a result on how they draw water out of the colon. If you do feel this effect then use apple sauce and distilled water several times a day until you rehydrate the colon and the body is able to remove the congestion.Another user said:Yes.

Is salba the same grain as quinoa?

No. Both are "pseudo" grains because they are actually seeds and both are extremely good for you. Salba is made from chia seeds and quinoa is from the quinoa seed. Both originated in South America and have been used for centuries. Quinoa should be soaked before cooking and the cooking ration is 2 parts water to 1 part quinoa. Chia can be soaked or eaten raw. If soaked, the ratio is 9 parts water to 1 part chia (or salba) and it makes a gel that can be used in smoothies or gravies or just about anything. It does not dilute the taste of food, and has an extremely mild taste. Actually the taste of quinoa is quite mild as well. Both have a slightly nutty flavor. Both seeds are great for vegetarian diets as they have protein and quinoa has all the amino acids, which is quite unusual for a 'grain'.
