Can my baby eat Chia

Is chia healthy for children?

Chia is absolutely recommended if you're raising your child vegetarian or vegan, since it's the richest plant source of omega 3. It's a complete protein, containing all essential amino acids. When serving chia start slow, with no more than a teaspoon at first, since they can have a laxative effect. Don't worry about it though, you might just have to change 1 or 2 diapers more.

How to serve chia

You can make a chia pudding by soaking some seeds in a liquid like water or milk. After 15 minutes it forms a gel that you can stir through yoghurt, porridge or pudding. You can also soak chia seeds in milk overnight for a quick breakfast.
