Chia seeds are supposed to be a new superfood, loaded with calcium, very high fiber, and minerals. I got an intriguing recipe from watch dr.oz for hair, and nails that I've been using. It's tasty, easy, and great for a morning placeholder.
2 cups unsweetened almond milk 2 tablespoons chia seeds, (they float in the almond milk, way cool) 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon 1 packet stevia, or aguave sweetner to taste let sit ten minutes for seeds to expand a little, I usually only have the patience for five, which seems to be enough.
I halve the recipe, though he says you can save some for later, but, depends on if you are a morning person or not. It tastes good, and you can chew some of seeds to convince yourself, that you actually ate something. It's good, good luck with the doctor and the hand. -SB
