An enhanced food for humans which has significantly higher omega-3 content through the use of oil (82) from the salvia hispanica seed. The enhanced omega-3 content for the food is obtained by mixing oil (82) (whether the oil is extracted from the salvia hispanica seed or the seed is used whole) with a consumable carrier (81). In one embodiment of the invention, the salvia hispanica seed is ground into flour which is blended with traditional grain based flour for the preparation of cookies, breads, nutrition bars, crackers, and the like. In other embodiments, the salvia hispanica oil (82) is mixed with a liquid (83) (i.e. hot sauce, soft drinks, milk) which is then used either alone or in conjunction with other foods. In yet another embodiment, the consumable product (i.e. oatmeal) is used to absorb the salvia hispanica oil (82). The salvia hispanica oil is also useful in conjunction with a sweetener (whether natural occurring such as sugar or honey; as well as artifical sweeteners such as saccharin) allowing the invention to be added to drinks and foods just prior to consumption. |
