The composition of chia seed closely resembles that of other mucilaginous seeds such as flaxseeds and psyllium. Unlike flaxseed, however, chia does not have anti-nutritional factors, factors that limit the use of flaxseed without prior hot treatment. Anti-nutritional factors are cyanogenic glycosides or linatins, inhibitors of vitamin B6 that prevent its action. Chia also has a much more pleasant taste than flaxseed and birds consume it more willingly.
