Brain-Building Nutrition: How Dietary Fats and Oils Affect Mental, Physical, and Emotional Intelligence

I am not a scientist and my comment is based only on my own investigation using the internet and several books that I have purchased on this and other related subjects. I have also made it a point to seek out information from known reliable sources. I have recently been told that Chia Seeds and the oil from Chia Seeds are better than Hemp seeds or Hemp Seed oil, because they contain more Omega 3 fats and a better ratio of Omega 3 to Omega 6 and 9 than Hemp Seeds. I am not putting down Hemp, but from everything I have learned this is a true statement. The author, Michael Schmidt seems not to have discovered this or (I believe is misinformed). There is very little reference to Chia Seeds, and where they do exist, it seems inaccurate. Having said that, I do feel that the book is of value and he seems pretty knowledgeable in general, so I am still recommending the book. I would be curious to know if others (perhaps more knowledgeable than me) would care to comment on the use of Chia and if the book accurately reflects it's true nutritional values. At the very least, you should do your own investigation. Salba Super Grain (100% Pure Salvia Hispanica L) - 1lb.
