This work aimed to histologically evaluate the adequacy of the two-hybrid diets for Balb/c mice based on integral chia and flax flour and other natural ingredients typical of Northeast Argentina. Balb/c mice were randomly distributed into 3 groups (n=10/group) and fed diet A (commercial control), B (integral chia flour) and diet C (integral flax flour) for 70 days. The nutritional adequacy of the diets at the histological level was evaluated at the histological level using H/E and PAS stains in stomach, duodenum, liver, and kidney samples. Diets B and C did not cause histopathological alterations in organs of the digestive system, liver and kidney.
