Objective: The current study was conducted to evaluate the quality and profile of fatty acid in the breast and thigh, and the performance of broilers fed diets containing seed or oil of chia (<i>Salvia hispanica L.</i>) as a replacement for soybean, in the rearing period from 29 to 42 days of age.Methods: On the 29th day of age, 120 broilers were distributed in four treatments evaluated in five replicates of six birds. The grain or oil of soybean was respectively replaced on a weightto-weight basis in the formulation by the seed or oil of chia, constituting the experimental diets. The roasted whole soybean and chia seed were included in the feed at 16.4%, whereas the soybean and chia oils were included at 2.5%.Results: The dietary chia oil increased the lipid peroxidation in the thigh meat, and the dietary chia seed increased the cooking loss of the thigh. However, for the other physicochemical parameters evaluated and for the proximate composition of the breast and thigh, in general, the inclusion of chia seed or oil in the diet provided similar or better results than those observed when the diets contained soybean oil or roasted whole soybean. With regard to the fatty acid profile and associated parameters, dietary chia increased the concentrations of α-linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids and reduced the Σω-6:Σω-3 ratio and the atherogenicity and thrombogenicity indices of the broiler meat. However, the dietary chia seed worsened the feed conversion ratio.Conclusion: Diet containing 2.5% chia oil supplied to broilers during the period from 29 to 42 days of age improves the feed conversion ratio, increases the deposition of the ω-3 fatty acids in the breast and thigh, in addition to reducing the Σω-6:Σω-3 ratio and the atherogenicity and thrombogenicity indices, thereby resulting in meat with higher nutritional quality.

Salvia Hispanica L

The present study aimed to determine the role of Salvia hispanica L., (chia seed) fatty acid content in adipocyte lipid accumulation and human macrophage immunoregulatory potential. Chia seed fatty acid was extracted using hexane by the cold percolation method. A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis showed a 3:1 ratio of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid composition and it was more beneficial for human health. We treated it with increasing concentrations (0–6.4 μg/mL) of chia seed fatty acid extract to determine the cytotoxicity on the preadipocytes and macrophage; no significant cytotoxicity was observed. Chia seed, in 0.2 and 0.4 μg/mL doses, significantly arrested adipocyte hypertrophy and macrophage foam cell development. The gene expression levels of adipocyte confirmed the increased expression of adipocyte mitochondrial thermogenesis related genes, such as uncoupling protein-1 (UCP-1), peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PPARγC1α) and PR domain containing 16 (PRDM16); and the down regulated expression of the lipid synthesis related gene sterol regulatory element binding of protein-1c (SREBP-1c). In addition, adipogenesis related genes, such as the proliferator activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBPα) expressions, have been down regulated by chia seed treatment. Macrophage treated with chia seed-treated adipocyte condition media significantly inhibited the obesity associated inflammatory genes and protein expression levels, such as monocyte chemo attractant protein-1 (MCP-1), prostaglandins E2, interleukin-6, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). In conclusion, a 3:1 ratio of omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acid composition of chia seed fatty acid content potentially inhibits lipid accumulation, and enhanced fatty acid oxidation, via UCP-1 and PRDM16 expression. Macrophage recruitment to adipocyte and the development of obesity associated inflammation was suppressed by chia seeds.

The aim of the study was to develop and characterize marmalade having functional food ingredients such as omega-3 fatty acid, dietary fiber, protein, and antioxidants with the addition of chia seed (Salvia hispanica L.). During the development of marmalade formulations, sweetener type and chia content in the strawberry marmalade were decided by two-step sensory analysis. In the first step, four different formulas were prepared separately by using sorbitol, isomalt, commercial Stevia™ powder, and isomalt together with sorbitol. The control formula was prepared with sucrose (refined commercial sugar). In the first part of the study, sensorial parameters showed good acceptability for sorbitol. Thereafter, in the second step, marmalades were prepared with 2.5% and 5% (by weight) chia seed including sorbitol. According to sensory panels, sorbitol had the highest acceptance level and the chia seed content was chosen to be used as 5% in the formulations. Chia seed and sorbitol addition increased the phenolic content by 15.45% and the dietary fiber content by 168% and decreased the caloric value by 48% compared to the control prepared with sucrose and without chia seed. The final product had 1.5% omega-3 fatty acid and could be declared as “omega-3 source” in the label. The viscosity of chia-added marmalade was found to be slightly higher than the viscosity of control, even though there was no distinct difference between the two samples. The gel-like character was more dominant in chia-added strawberry marmalade compared to the control. The addition of chia at 5% may contribute to the crosslinking without formation of a gel structure.

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) is an herbaceous plant that belongs to the Lamiaceae family. Seed vigor testing is an important component of quality control programs, and electrical conductivity test is a possible option in this process. The objective of this study was to identify a methodology of electrical conductivity test to stratify chia seed lots at vigor level according to the emergence of seedlings. Six lots of chia seeds were used in this study. The seeds were exposed to the following determinations: first germination count, germination, emergence speed index, emergence, aerial and root length, aerial and root dry matter, and electrical conductivity at 25, 50 and 75 mL during 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hours of soaking in water. The electrical conductivity test in the combination of 25 seeds using 50 mL of water in 6-hour of soaking period, as well as the combination of 50 seeds using 50 mL of water for 24 hours of soaking, were efficient in the stratification of chia seeds in different levels of vigor.

Chia (Salvia hispanica L.) is an annual plant that belongs to the Lamiaceae family. It is native to Mesoamerica, today’s Mexico and Guatemala, where it has been cultivated since ancient times. Chia seed contains up to 18% α-linolenic acid (ALA, 18:3), which constitutes about 60% of total fatty acids, making S. hispanica one of the richest plant sources of this essential fatty acid. ALA, an n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA), serves as the precursor of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, 20:5) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6), long-chain n-3 PUFAs that exert the antiatherogenic and cardioprotective effects. In humans, consumption of chia seeds leads to an increase in plasma ALA and EPA levels, and stimulates endogenous DHA synthesis. Among the beneficial effects of chia seed supplementation is also a reduction in total cholesterol and VLDL cholesterol with a concomitant increase in HDL cholesterol in hyperlipidemic subjects, a significant reduction in the systolic blood pressure (SBP) in hypertensive individuals, an attenuation of postprandial hyperglycemia, and a decrease in plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) – the marker of inflammation. In view of these findings, chia seeds can be considered an important component of a cardioprotective diet.

The seed of Chia (Salvia hispanica L.), originating in Mexico, is included in the cereals group, is considered a functional food. Its physicochemical composition and nutritional properties make it a significant source of fiber, carbohydrates, proteins, minerals, essential amino acids, antioxidants and is rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). The objective of this study was to gather information that relates Chia seed composition to the prevention, treatment and control of some pathologies, such as obesity, dyslipidemia, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. This review study used the databases Medline/Pubmed, Lilacs, Scielo, a bibliographic collection of the Federal University of Campina Grande and materials from the national and international health committees, from articles published in the last 20 years. Sixty references were found, of which 43 were included in this study, excluding only those that did not have relevant aspects of the proposed theme. Therefore, when adding Chia seeds to the diet, it is possible to notice an improvement in parameters such as blood pressure (BP), lipid profile, glycemic index (GI), increased satiety sensation and delayed gastric emptying, which are direct indicators of these diseases And consequently the quality of life. Thus, Chia seed is only an auxiliary, and healthy living habits are also necessary.
