Frequently Asked Questions About The Purisalv Product
What is chia seed?
The chia seed that PURISALV uses is called the Salvia Hispanica seed. This superfood is coveted by natural food gurus because it's rich in omega-3 fatty acids, free radical fighting antioxidants and essential amino acids.
The chia seed history extends as far back as 3,500 B.C. and was an integral part of the Aztec culture, economy and healthy diet. The amazing health benefits of chia seeds survived the Aztec demise to present day and is most notably known as a "runner's food" because of its endurance-health qualities.
Now commercially grown, the chia seed has become an instant hit in the natural and whole food consumer marketplaces.

Are chia seeds really a miracle superfood?
Experts such as Dr. Oz believe it is. We expect chia seeds to soon be an integral part of the healthy American diet because of all the healthful benefits of this amazing superfood.
Chia seeds have all the qualities of a superfood and pound for pound have more of them. For example, chia seeds have 8 times the Omega-3s of salmon and none of the cholesterol. 30% more vital antioxidants than the power packed blueberry. Even 1400% the magnesium of the classic "good for you vegetable" broccoli. All this amazing nutrition packed inside a tiny seed!
Don't believe it? Well, Dr. Oz, the famous TV doctor and Oprah's health guru can't get enough of the amazing nutritional value of chia seeds. Dr. Johnny Bowden, author of "100 Healthiest Foods to Eat During Pregnancy" recommends that chia as a great diet supplement for a healthy pregnancy. Dr. Andrew Weil, the founder and director of the Arizona Center for Integrative Medicine (AzCIM) at the University of Arizona Health Sciences Center, describes how researchers from the University of Toronto made a preliminary discovery where chia seeds actually performed better at decreasing the blood pressure of diabetic patients than comparable high fiber grains.
