7 Chia Seed Mistakes and How to Fix Them:
Not Soaking Them Long Enough
Fix: Soak for a minimum of 4 hours to allow full hydration and avoid gritty texture.

Using the Wrong Liquid Ratio
Fix: Stick to a ratio of 1:4 (1 tbsp chia seeds to 4 tbsp liquid).

Skipping the Second Stir
Fix: Stir once after 10 minutes to prevent seeds from clumping.

Eating Them Dry
Fix: Always soak them! Dry chia can expand in your throat and cause discomfort or choking.

Not Storing Properly
Fix: Keep soaked chia in a sealed container in the fridge. Dry chia should be stored in a cool, dry pantry.
