While chia seeds have gained popularity for their role in making trendy puddings, there’s more to them than meets the eye (or stomach). Beyond being a versatile ingredient, chia seeds have a surprising benefit that could change the way you think about hydration.

Chia seeds can actually absorb up to 10 times (!) their weight in water, forming a gel-like substance. When consumed, this gel helps slow down digestion, releasing a steady stream of energy and keeping you feeling full for longer. But here’s the really cool thing: this water-absorbing quality can also work wonders for your body’s hydration.

A Hydration Marvel

When you eat chia seeds, they don’t only support your overall health and sense of satiety, but also promote and sustain hydration. This can prove particularly beneficial during hot summer months or after a workout.

So, next time you’re on the hunt for a nutritious and hydrating boost, consider the option of incorporating chia seeds into your meals. Whether you like them added to smoothies, sprinkled on yogurt, or mixed into your favorite recipes, these spectacular seeds have unique benefits that extend beyond their valuable nutrients.

Staying hydrated while at work, in class, or on the run can be a really tough task if you haven’t come up with a plan beforehand of how you can do it. Certain habits will help you greatly in the fight to drink enough water all day long.

Here are some that you can start to make a part of your daily routine in order to ensure that you’ll be hydrated all day long.

Set Reminders

Nearly all of us have smartphones in this day and age that can give us alarms and reminders of whatever we need to do throughout the day. Why not set a series of reminders on your phone or another device throughout the day reminding you to sip some water?

Get a Heavy-Duty Water Flask

Having a large, heavy-duty water flask that is reusable and holds a big amount of water is a great, eco-friendly way to encourage hydration. Take it with you to work or school, on trips, or to work out so that you always have water convenient and handy.

Sip All Day

One of the biggest mistakes that people make when trying to stay hydrated is only drinking water at certain points during the day, like at meals or snack times. Instead, it’s better to make a conscious effort to drink small quantities of water all day long in order to be sure that your body is always sufficiently hydrated.
