Chia seeds

Had GVS on 4/10. Can I use chia seeds? I know they swell. Don't want to mess myself up. How much would you recommend?

      I put a teaspoon in my Greek yogurt for texture. Let it sit a few minutes and they swell there. I know some mix them in smoothies and shakes as well. I just use a small amount though.

      You can use chia seeds. However, they arent as healthy as the heath nuts claim. Really not much there to hype.
