What are the benefits of chia seeds?

Along with being very nutritionally dense, the major benefit of chia to us is that its outer membrane absorbs & retains Water, carrying it into the intestine naturally relieving the dry, hard stools many of us suffer with.

Thanks OTR. So as long as things move along easily I guess they would have no other benefit to take them.

They'd be in the natural/health food section in higher end grocers, also available at herbalist stores, Vitamin Shoppe, & Amazon.< /p>

They're also a great source of Omega 3's, we lose our hair loosing weight this fast because we don't get enough omegas with our diet restrictions. Folic acid + omega 3's = great hair. Botin helps you digest omega's but if' we're not getting enough it's a waste of money. Better to get some salmon oil, chia seeds + folic acid. Just make sure you only take the salmon oil after a meal and yes, it'll help things run smoothly too (as well as being one of the best anti-inflammatories on the market).

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
