Chia Seeds

Tags: Diet

OK, before you laugh, bear with me.

I couple of weeks ago I read this article about the benefits of Chia Seeds.  I’m normally pretty skeptical on things and this one did seem a little ridiculous on the surface, after all, chia seed = cha cha cha chia.

I looked the seeds on Amazon to see how much they cost.  Oh, $12 for 2lbs.  It’s not that much damage if they are useless, so I ordered it.

It’s been a little over a week now since I got my seeds and I’ve been using them regularly.  There are a couple different ways to consume the seeds, either sprinkling them on another food, making a “gell” out of them by putting them in water for 15 minutes or so, or my favorite, putting them in Green Tea or Gatorade. 

Instead of going to the vending machine to get a snack I’ll grab a drink and throw the seeds in.  15 minutes later I have a mix that kills any hunger I’m experiencing and gives me a pick-me-up for a few hours.

I haven’t lost any weight yet, but the more remarkable thing is that my blood sugar has been starting to normalize.  I’ve been struggling with my blood sugar levels for a few months now, it’s just been high and I’ve resisted the urge to go to the doctor.  My GOD is a far better physician than anyone on earth and I believe that I AM healed by the great I AM.

Anyway, the last couple of days my levels have been getting lower and lower and I believe in short order they will back to normal without the need for medication.  I’m not there yet, but if the trend continues you can call me a true believer.  I’m going to keep using these awesome seeds and see where it takes me.  I’ll keep you updated along the way.
