Chia seeds are full of healthy fats, known as omega-3 fatty acids. These help reduce inflammation in your body. The pudding absorbs waters and helps keep you hydrated and feeling satisfied throughout the day. Chia seeds are also full of protein which helps stabilize your blood sugar and give you energy throughout the day. These also help move your digestion along, if things are moving slow.

@Sabrina…I have had it the pudding last 10 days so far.
I make smaller amount of chia pudding. I use 3 T chia seeds with 15 T of water, stir, soak overnight when I remember. It also sets up after about 30 min in the refrigerator when I forget to make it over night. I add a few drops of vanilla (less than 1/4 t.) and about a teaspoon of raw honey. Top with level one berries. Enjoy!
Does anyone actually make these recipes and measure the servings and all: I made the four serving version shown here, with water. It’s fine but with a serving being 1/4 cup and four servings in this recipes — I have 2.5+ cups of the finished pudding — that would be at least 10 servings — enough for all three meals for three days. What an utter waste of food — will this even last for a couple of weeks (since I’ve been told, every other day.
I’m so glad I read these comments. I’m gonna be using Oat Milk as I have a personal conflict with Almond Milk.
Wish me luck as I start on Monday.
Love this pudding. I also use unsweetened almond milk. I add plenty of cinnamon and honey and vanilla. So good!
