Salba Corporation

Salba Corporation is a functional food and clinical nutrition company that specializes in the development and commercialization of Salba (Salvia hispanica L.), a proprietary variety of white chia seed. The company has pioneered the use of Salba as a medical food, supported by randomized controlled trials demonstrating its efficacy in reducing cardiovascular risk factors and improving glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes. Salba is distinguished by its high content of Omega-3 fatty acids (ALA) and dietary fiber, and the company maintains exclusive rights to the cultivation and distribution of this specific grain variety. Its products are marketed globally, primarily through its North American affiliate, Salba Smart Natural Products, and are used as both standalone supplements and ingredients in various health-focused food products.
