What human studies?

"Recent studies confirmed that chia seeds show cardioprotective, hypotensive, antidiabetic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, hypolipemic, neuroprotective, and hepatoprotective properties."

Basil/Sabja seeds are used extensively in India especially in Summers to cool the body. They are soaked and added to water, faloodas (sort of like milkshakes) etc

Chia seeds is foreign food in my country. But basil seeds is what we eat since kids. To me, basil seed tastes much better & cheaper too since it is local produce.

I have tried both Chia and Basil Seeds. I will now only use Basil seeds. I bought Zen Basil Seeds and they make better pudding. Research. I think basil seeds are the winner.

They make you feel full and help move things along in the digestive tract. I will keep consuming them❤

We each react differently to food, so it really is about what works best for you and your health.

I use a coffee grinder for my chiaseeds to avoid bloating.

I have RA. Chia seeds absolutely made me ache all over. I was so disappointed, because I had heard they are so good for you. Thanks for the tip, Dr. Gundry. 🙏🏽❤

I made the swap and purchased the seeds and nuts you suggested.

So far I have had no problems consuming the alternatives to Organic Chia Seeds!

The reason for this is because chia seeds only have 1 type of omega 3 and that is ALA. Canola oil has a lot of omega 3 and it's all ALA. EPA and DHA are the good omega 3's that you can attain from salmon.

I prefer Chia seeds on my infused water and basil seeds over an avocado toast. 🥑 🥪 🧋

I stopped eating chia seeds anymore after getting to know about it contained gluten and lectins in it that harm human health.I appreciate Dr.Gundry who always reminding us to eat healthy foods for our health and well being.

I actually had no problems follow after consuming both the seeds. I wonder if I'm the only one.

Chiaseeds all most choked me, I made chia over night oatmeal, and my throat swelled up very much. Hade to take cortisone pills to calm it down. It really scared me!!! Not so healthy when you can’t breathe!! 😢

So true. Every time I consumed chia seeds I would feel bloated for two days. I’ve tried different ways to consume it but the result was the same. Good to know about basil seeds I will try that out.

Chia seeds do not like me… abdominal pain always follows after I eat some.

I’ve been eating (drinking) chia seeds for years and love them. After watching some videos like this, I switched to Basel seeds. Basel seeds taste better and have a much nicer texture.

[dolcevita]

I was about to start eating chia seeds…glad this video popped up!

Since basil seeds contain high levels of fiber, eating too much of them may cause symptoms such as bloating, abdominal cramps, and diarrhea.

Lololol...chia seeds are so yesterday. Today it's basil seeds. Hmm...wonder what seed it will be tomorrow!?
