  • My Nan makes juice that has something like those seeds

  • Comment removed

  • I do believe it is omega-3 in them. When I take flax oil pills, the craving for fats like chocolate or chips goes away. Because the brain is losing the good fats, it makes you crave them.. My observations only..

  • Will they make grass grow out of my head?

  • @Thespartan1212

    Only if your head is made of ceramic pottery and you spread the seeds on! (The Chia Obama head is popular these days...though it doesn't have anything to do with us) Chia is able to grow that gimmicky grass without dirt due to its dense nutritional properties.

  • Chia seeds are 30% fat, that's why they curb your appetite. Notice how the add mentions 23% protein but not the percentage of fat?

    If you want to drink seeds, fine -- they're like any other food. Just don't believe people who try to convince you that they're magic ass reduction pills.

  • Chia seeds do have Omega 3 healthy oils, which are a type of fat. (The same as in fish oil, which you see people buying as a supplement) Eating a fat to lose a fat may seem strange, but: Thats what USA Weekend reported on a study of dieters. In the study, people on the diet who were also supplementing with omega-3 oil lost more weight than people who didnt use this healthy oil.

    Chia curbs your appetite with the gel portion of the seed, and not the oil content in the seed.

  • @MohanndasChutney fat is not your enemy. Your closed mind is.

  • They aren't really filling... but they do keep you hydrated, so they're great for athletes. (:

  • from the makers of "Chi Chi Chi Chia"

  • Chia seeds are a high fiber food and they do hold a lot of water once soaked so they would help to keep you feeling full. If you are looking to lose weight you could include them as part of a healthy diet and combine that with 2-3 hours of aerobic exercise each week.

  • Sorry typo.. again... i'm falling asleep.. 'line' not 'like.' I'm off 2 bed....

  • Sorry typo.. The second like was supposed to read ''today indians use them.''

  • These seeds have been used in India since ancient times. Even today Indiand use them. We call them tak-marya in India. My mum used to give them to me as part of a drink made from milk. They are really cooling on the body. They are also used in Ayurveda.

  • Can I use Chia seeds for weight loss?

  • Of course. That's what this demonstration explains.

    Eaten with a regular, or down-sized meal ... you'll feel full due to the water absorption of the Chia seed.

  • They're also called Basil seeds
