Chia seeds are prized for their ability to provide sustainable energy and have been a food staple in both the Mayan and Aztec cultures, along with native tribes of North America. In fact, chia is the ancient Mayan word for strength.

Mila^® is a super food that is gluten-free, trans-fat free, sugar-free, and is a superior plant-based source of protein and fiber. Mila uses different varieties of the chia seed to provide a wide array of nutrients. By combining these crops, you get a nutritionally robust product.

Why Micro Sliced?
Whole chia seeds are not fully digested by the body leaving a significant portion of their nutritional properties wasted. Micro-sliced describes the process of how the chia seeds in Mila are “broken open” in order to maximize their nutritional value. Live PURE has invested in customized manufacturing equipment, which slices a significant quantity of the seeds through this process. Heat is also not introduced into this process in order to maintain the sliced seeds nutritional integrity. 

Contains the omega-3 fat ALA, or “alpha-linolenic acid.” ALA has been shown to support heart health; in fact, studies have illustrated improved cardiovascular health among those with a high intake of ALA- containing foods, like Mila.

Mila also helps meet the fiber needs of your family. The fiber found in Mila is predominantly insoluble fiber, a form of fiber that aids in the relief of occasional constipation.
