    I have never tried them but i have been on PGX for three weeks now which is essentially chia seeds in a pill form or granules. Works wonder, I call it my will power in a pill. It expands in the stomach (u have to drink lots of water though) and it slows down digestions and help the body absorb the food slower. It really helps to stabilize your blood sugar, which in turn helps reduce craving.

    I am addicted to chia seeds! My favorite way to eat them is in the fresh grapefruit cups - YUM. A friend of mine that told me about them is a runner and said it helps her to stay hydrated. She also drinks them on the golf course in green tea. I have yet to find a bad thing said about them....

    I love them! I put them in my yogurt or sometimes I just take a tbsp with lots of h2o. I think they are about 60 cals per tbsp...do you all agree with this???

    yep i'd say 40-60. i can't remember what my package says.

    LOVE them...mine right now say 60 cals per tbsp. I did order 2 packages of organic chia on amazon with a subscibe and save for an amazing price. you can find some really good deals if you look around.
    I make my own energy gel for running with them, use them in oatmeal and my breakfast smoothie, i will eat them straight from the jar, i have even sprinkled them on my egg whites with some parm cheese. the only thing that can get annoying is they casn get stuck in your gum line, so check your teeth before heading out the door :)

    for those who havent found them it is the first ingredient in Dragons Blend Holy Crap and Skinny B cereal. I have it every day in my cereal. Had no idea it was healthy or filling. Whats healthy about it?
