Not true with Chia seeds, unlike Flax.

@astat1 come on, give her a break. You can just google it.

I soaked them in water, added lemon+lime juice, a little orange juice, mint, and some seltzer. You can also add a bit of sugar if you want. It is good as is, or you can take just the liquid on top. It tastes SOOO GOOOOOOOD but is slightly slimey.
Also, it's similar to the way that the Tarahumara native americans have it (w/ lime and mint only)

@Retrocyclers - that's actually an inlet in Porirua :-)

That landscape shot at the start. It reminds me of the bay just around the corner from Coromandel township......

@SolarTim Thank you for your reply! That's good news to be able to buy them at Pak'n Save! So much easier than having to worry about importing them. Cheers!

And if you want to have really good ones, go to purewellbeing.co.nz - they sell it too. Good luck!!!

@silencerainbows - Thanks for your interest. Yes, back when I started, it was very hard to import the seeds, many of my boxes got stopped by customs and they destroy it. Very expensive experience. But now all different - I saw them with Pak'n Save!

Thank you for this video! I will try your recipe soon it's a good idea! I also live in New Zealand (in the Bay of Islands) and wanted to ask you if you can get Chia seeds now in New Zealand. Was it difficult to import the seed?

How about doing some research on the internet? :-)
I wasn't able to get them in New Zealand either, so I imported them from the US. Not sure if that's possible for you?
Cheers

Can I drink the chia lemon water for weight loss?

Hi wanlong89, Chia seeds keep you full for a very long time. If you have enough of them, you are able to eat less. This is true for having Chia in any form, as a drink or in your food, or seperately. Have them 10 minutes before a meal, this is what I find has the best effect.
Nevertheless, there is no magic pill that automatically reduces your weight. If you don't change your eating habits (= eating less), or exercise more (or both) then you will not lose weight.
Good luck!
