Chia seeds provide fiber and, surprisingly have all but eliminated previously frequent nighttime leg cramps.

I didn't have any clear expectations when I purchased chia seeds to supplement my diet.

3 tablespoons in morning oatmeal or smoothie. I feel great, energetic and regular. I do exercise daily but using this product seems to help my general well being. No adverse side effects at all.

I am in good overall health and I have a green smoothie every morning. I first added 1Tbs of Chia seeds to my morning smoothie on a Wednesday.

I am in good overall health and I have a green smoothie every morning. I first added 1Tbs of Chia seeds to my morning smoothie on a Wednesday. I felt a bit crampy and gassy that day but did not associate this to the chia immediately. Due to a busy schedule on Thursday, I was going to have a green smoothie for lunch in addition to my morning one and I added 1Tbs of chia seeds to each smoothie. By 10AM I was not feeling well but thought I was coming down with something. By the end of the day I was having loose stools and ongoing intermittent upper abdominal cramping and occasional mild nausea. This turned into proper diarrhea and three days later, I am still not passing solid material. I have searched google and have found others reporting similar effects so I would urge caution with starting chia until you are sure your body is tolerant. I am going to avoid it for a few weeks and then try a much smaller dose to see if I can tolerate and if not, the bag goes in the bin. :(
