However, inadequate regulation across North American countries creates confusion among consumers regarding the origin of chia seed plant, thereby restraining adoption. Moreover, increasing presence of substitutes including flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, and hemp seeds are likely to impede demand for chia seeds in North America.
