More isn't always merrier, especially in this case. While chia seeds offer several health benefits, it is important to consume them in moderation to prevent any stomach issues the over-consumption might cause.

Chia seeds that you are eating for health benefits can potentially become a choking hazard, as they can expand in the food pipe if you do not soak them before eating.

As chia seeds absorb water it is important to keep yourself hydrated when you eat them. This can cause dehydration or constipation since it may drain your body of fluids.
