💧 1. Always Soak Chia Seeds Before Eating

• Why? Chia seeds absorb up to 12x their weight in water, forming a gel that supports hydration and digestion.
• Pro Tip: Soak 1 tablespoon of chia in 1/2 cup of liquid (water, milk, juice) for at least 10–30 minutes before consuming.

🥄 2. Use the Right Amount (Don’t Overdo It)

• Chia seeds are super high in fiber—great for digestion, but too much too fast can cause bloating.
• Pro Tip: Start with 1 tsp to 1 tbsp per day and gradually increase to 2 tbsp max daily, along with enough water.

🥤 3. Add to Hydrating Drinks for Sustained Energy

• Chia Fresca: Mix 1 tbsp chia with 1 cup water, lemon juice, and a bit of honey. Let it sit 15 minutes.
• Pro Tip: Drink before workouts or in the morning for long-lasting energy and hydration.

🌡️ 4. Don't Boil Chia — Add After Cooking

• High heat can damage some nutrients and reduce their gelling power.
• Pro Tip: Stir into oatmeal, yogurt, soup, or smoothies after cooking or just before serving.

🍽️ 5. Use as a Vegan Egg Substitute

• Chia Egg: Mix 1 tbsp chia seeds with 3 tbsp water, let sit 10–15 mins until gel forms. Replaces 1 egg in baking.
• Pro Tip: Great in pancakes, muffins, and cookies—gives a slight crunch.
