5.0 out of 5 stars Great expectations, great results, September 15, 2008

By	Belle Voce "I'd rather be singing" (Temple, TX USA) - See all my reviews

I am 63, female. I have been using Salba for over a year now. It has greatly calmed my digestive problems. For overall health it is excellent due to the high Omega 3 content and Calcium and other health promoting ingredients.

Easy to digest, does not change the flavor of foods to which it is added (I use mine ground - in my Magic Bullet - in a variety of foods but mostly in my breakfast smoothy). It has thickening properties which make it great for sauces and deserts that need a bit more body.

I love it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Salba is part of my everyday diet, March 1, 2009

By	bluentourage (Florida) - See all my reviews

I have been using Salba for a year now. At first I was skeptical over the claims of what I thought were over priced chia seeds. When I was very ill off and on from partial blockage due to c-section scaring, I thought I'd give this product a try. I have never had such regularity in my life! I use it everyday in either oatmeal ot yogurt. I buy it whole and grind it. It is an amazing source of fiber and when on this product I never have a problem. I switched a month ago to a cheaper product and started to experience the old symptoms. I am switching back to Salba. It is a life saver for my situation. It does supress hunger which is an added bonus. The 2 reasons I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is the high cost, and the fact that I personally do not get noticable energy boosts with this product. However I am also a sleep deprived mom of 2 kids under the age of 4. I don't think anything can boost my energy except a full night sleep!

4.0 out of 5 stars It works, April 20, 2009

By	George T. Blake (Mahopac NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Since I started taking Salba I feel I have more energy and pep. The only negative thing I can say about it is that it is not the easiest product to eat. The seeds are so tiny they tend to hide in your mouth. I find that adding them to my cereal and let them soften up for a minute helps.
