In reality, chia seeds and their properties can transform not just your body, but also your face and overall beauty aura. With these seeds being so accessible and affordable, that's undoubtedly excellent news. If you're looking for one, or three more reasons to incorporate chia seeds into your diet, read on! 

Chia Seeds Remove Stress Lines

Hey, first off, everyone is beautiful and all that, there's no joke in that. But do you know what is the number one cause of a less-than-stellar appearance these days? Stress. 

Certain people look rosy and blooming not because of the skincare regimen they have or the genes they're blessed with, but because they handle their stress better. Life has a way of making people not just feel tired, but look tired. 

If you need help making sure your stress does not appear on your face, add chia seeds to your foods or beverages. They are full of magnesium, an unsung hero in the world of beauty.

Magnesium can keep your cortisol levels low, which can keep your head above the stress and frictions of the daily grind. Also, magnesium has been found to keep the headaches and fatigue at bay. 

Can you remember the last time you look remotely pretty while nursing a migraine and feeling bogged down? Never? You get the drift. 

Get Glowy Even Without the Scrubs and Facial

Do you invest time and money to get that glow celebrity usually have? To think they do not even sleep well. No need for that expensive scrubs or facial treatments to get the same glowing look. Sans highlighters and bronzers, you can also achieve healthy, glowing skin just by adding chia seeds to your diet. 

Chia seeds contain a considerable amount of antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids. Both are key to healthier skin, hair, and nails. Moreover, these elements reduce inflammation and dryness and boost overall hydration and circulation. Outcome? Glowing, dewy complexion and thick, lush hair

Why are antioxidants good for your skin? Because they are potent for fighting free radicals, which can damage your skin quickly and make you look old way ahead of time. Wrinkles, who wants that? NO ONE.
