Health – Eat Chia Seeds

Tiny but powerful, chia seeds are an excellent breakfast supplement.

They’re high in fiber and can absorb water to form a gel, which expands in your stomach to help keep you feeling fuller longer (33Trusted Source).

They’re also rich in protein, which can slow the emptying of your stomach and reduce levels of ghrelin, the hormone responsible for stimulating hunger (34Trusted Source).

One study in 11 adults found that eating chia seeds baked into white bread reduced both appetite and blood sugar levels (35Trusted Source).

Another 12-week study in 19 people showed that 35 grams of chia flour daily significantly reduced body weight and waist circumference (36Trusted Source).

Try making a chia seed breakfast parfait by mixing one ounce (28 grams) of chia seeds with one cup (245 grams) of yogurt in a bowl or mason jar.

Let the mixture soak for about 30 minutes to allow the seeds to swell, then top it off with a one-half cup (74 grams) of your favourite berries.

Chia seeds also make a delicious and nutritious addition to tea, smoothies or overnight oats.
