Chia Seed Oil

Chia Seed Oil (CSO) is derived from the seeds of Salvia hispanica, which originates from southern Mexico, Guatemala, and other regions in North America. Chia seeds are rich in alpha-linolenic acid and various antioxidant compounds, including chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol. They serve as a natural source of Omega-3 fatty acids and are abundant in dietary fiber, protein, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. In 2014, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Food Safety Law of the People's Republic of China and the Measures for the Safety Assessment and Administration of New Food Raw Materials, chia seeds were approved as a new food raw material.
Chia seed oil possesses notable antioxidant properties, aiding in preventing cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases, maintaining normal physiological and brain functions, and lowering blood lipids. Its defining feature is its high content of Omega-3 alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an 18-carbon fatty acid with three double bonds, which is vital for cardiovascular health, anti-inflammatory effects, and cognitive support. With an ALA content of ≥55%, chia seed oil is widely used in dietary supplements, functional foods, and skincare products.
