Chia Seeds

Been doing some studying lately on seeds and I have come across chia seed time and time again and the benefits they provide. Chia seeds are loaded with Omega-3, protein, magnesium, calcium and potassium. Benefits of the Chia seed include blood sugar balancing, lose weight without starving, more energy etc. The Chia seed is a small seed that you won't notice when adding to food, salad dressings or drinks. So far I have added the seed to my home made salad dressing. They add quite a nice taste to the dressing actually. This is a seed that can't be missed in your daily diet.

These chia seeds are not only good for growing on some terra cotta pot as some would believe but yes they are great incorporated in foods. I get mine at http://www.genericseeds.com/ in bulk which saves me money. What is the drink that you put them in? I find they sink to the bottom is there something i can do to not get a big lump of then in the bottom of my green drink?

I usually put them in smoothies. My wife puts them in her cucumber drinks and chugs it before it can get all clumpy. I would say stick to smoothies for sure though. I also put them in salad dressing which is quite nice.
