Chia seeds are a great source of protein. Each 25 gram serving has 4.3 grams of protein, making chia seeds one of the best plant protein sources. This is especially important for vegetarians and vegans as they are not getting protein from eating meat. Since chia seeds can be added to almost anything they are an excellent way to get the recommended daily serving of protein.
