  • Question
    Do I need to soak my chia seeds first or can I use them anyway?
    Community Answer
    Soak them to ensure they have taken in as much liquid as they can. You can choke on chia seeds if you eat too many without letting them soak first.

    It is safe to swallow them without chewing them. They are small enough that it might be difficult to chew every one though!
