I used to have bad gastrointestinal issues because I had a low fiber diet. I felt bloated all the time, or felt like I constantly had to go to the bathroom only to sit there with no results. I did a lot of research on high fiber foods, and chia seeds seemed to be the best way to incorporate more fiber into my diet at a low cost. Metamucil is also a good choice, but 3x more expensive for the same results. 2.2lbs of Chia seeds cost $10, versus 2.2lbs of Metamucil cost a little over $30. Not to mention, chia seeds are high in protein and omega 3 fatty acids, whereas Metamucil is not. I weigh out 40 grams of chia seeds (12g-13g of fiber) and soak them in 2 cups of water for 2 hours or more, and drink them with a straw. You have to make sure to stir them well, or they will clump together. Chia seeds have made a huge impact on my regularity and overall mood. I don't feel bloated or bogged down all the time like I used to. I was purchasing chia seeds from Wal-Mart, but found these to be a better deal as you got more for your money. Chia seeds do have a gelatinous consistency which may not be ideal for some people, I liken them to boba in bubble tea, just a lot smaller. They have little to no taste, and you can soak them in all kinds of different liquids. You should drink a lot of water too whenever you're increasing your fiber intake, as the fiber bulks up and helps move things along when you're properly hydrated. If you're having stomach issues, I would highly recommend incorporating chia seeds into your diet, as they will make a huge difference in the way you feel. These are an excellent deal!

Chia seeds are a healthy source of Omega-3 fatty acids that are so good for the heart health. They also have a lot of protein and magnesium. Magnesium is a critical nutrient that American diets are likely to be deficient in. This is a wonderful, big bag and I put them on a lot of things. I love a handful thrown in salads, and they are fine in soups, smoothies, and essentially anything that can hold tiny seeds. They don't have any flavor so they won't change how the food or drinks you put them in tastes. The Yupik brand is one I have relied on for a long time. The quality of Yupik seeds (sunflower, chia, pepitas, & sesame seeds are the ones I have bought) has always been great. I have been particularly satisfied with their sunflower seeds because when I have ordered other brands, they often arrive with their oils rancid. I keep all my seeds in the freezer so I don't have to worry about them going rancid before I use them up. But Yupik's seeds always arrive fresh and good.

The size and price make it very economical. It has served my family well over the period. Price and quality

Good for smoothies, good price.

Nice and fresh

I reorder these very few months to make my chia pudding each day. Good quality. Good price compared to the stores. No complaints.

Amazing, simple and tastes clean.
