How quickly do chia seeds soaked in water leave the stomach and affect nutrient absorption? - #53268
How quickly do chia seeds (one tablespoon ) soaked for 15 minutes in water (10 ounces) exit the empty stomach? I am concerned that chia will bind with food and supplements and prevent absorption of nutrients. Thank you and blessings
