Another interesting way of consuming chia seeds is by adding them into water. All you need to do is add chia seeds into water, and consume it first thing in the morning or any other time of the day, and it will provide you with an array of health benefits.

They can aid in digestion.
Chia seeds have 10 grams of fiber per ounce, making them one of the more high-fiber foods you can find. Fiber not only digests more slowly than many other foods and keeps you full longer, but it also helps you maintain normal bowel movements and reduce constipation.
