How To Eat Chia Seeds... and enjoy them!

As a Certified Nutrition Coach, chia seeds are a staple ingredient for myself and my daughters. In just two tablespoons they contain 6 grams of essential amino acids making them a great addition to oats, smoothies, and yogurt.

Benefits Of Chia Seeds: – Increase your fiber intake thus helping out your gut – Slow digestion helps keep you full longer – Improve brain health  – Give a hefty dose of calcium  – has a unique blend of amino acids (protein!)

Chia Powder vs. Seed Chia powder won’t “bubble” and create the same kind of gel as whole chia seeds will, though they do still act as a binder. For this reason, chia powder works best in baking recipes to create almost a “casing” and hold the ingredients together.
