Packed full of energy and so much health benefit...
Did you know chia seeds can stabilize blood sugar, boost weight loss, keep your hunger at bay, and even help keep your body hydrated throughout the day.....
Chia seeds pack in an impressive 10 grams of fiber per ounce, making it a fantastic appetite suppressant and one of the "best weight loss foods" All that fiber slows down the absorption of nutrients and the conversion of carbs to sugar, meaning you'll be less likely to snack an hour after breakfast or lunch.
Science has also proven that fiber is even more powerful than that: In addition to lowering the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes, one study published found that increasing dietary fiber intake can significantly lower the overall risk of death, meaning that a tiny tablespoon of chia seeds will help you live a longer, healthier—and trimmer—life. So if it's not obvious yet, we are all about the health benefits of this superfood.
Looking for ideas try this:
The golden rule for chia seed pudding: 3 tablespoons chia seeds to 1 cup milk ratio; so, if you're looking to make a whole batch, stick to that. Mix in some fruits, nuts, coconut shavings, powders, or spices, and the options are endless!
