Is mango chia pudding good for weight loss?

The answer is yes! Chia seeds have amazing benefits and weight loss is just one of them. Chia seeds can give you increases energy and have protein for added “fuel” and muscle building. According to Dr Axe, chia seeds rank one of the top plant-based proteins. This makes it great for those trying to gain lean muscle, burn fat, and manage hunger and appetite. High protein foods can help you to cut cravings and eat less.

Chia seeds are also high in fiber. Increasing your fiber intake is a great tool for weight loss by helping your body eliminate more regularly and preventing constipation.

Chia seeds also get the gel around them when they are combined with a liquid. This helps them to take up more space in your stomach making you feel full longer!

Can I let chia pudding set overnight?

Yes. Chia puddings and overnight oats are known for great ideas for meal prepping. They are quick and easy to make and provide an easy and healthy breakfast for the week. Letting them sit overnight gives time for your chia pudding to thicken to a perfect consistency. The great thing about chia pudding is you don’t have to let it sit overnight. Chia gels up pretty quickly, so if you are in a hurry and want a quick, healthy snack, it will thicken up by the time you prep the mango for this pudding!
