If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Hello, Was not sure of posting this in the main forum. Has anybody tried supplementing with Chia Seeds. How does it work for AS. I think it can also be pretty helpful with non-starch diet as you feel full and tend to have more energy. Not sure about the starch content though. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salvia_hispanicahttp://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2013/06/03/chia-seed-benefits-_n_3379831.htmlWould be interesting to read your views and experiences. Peace. AnkySpon

I love chia seeds, and eat them all the time! Super filling, great energy, and I consider them starch free.
I'm now a KICK AS (and Kick IBD) success story!! After going low starch Paleo to heal my gut, I can now eat nearly all starches, grains & foods without inflammation, flare-ups, or pain. I used a modified SCD diet approach (minus dairy! plus cacao ♥). Cheers to healing & thriving again! I blog at http://www.forestandfauna.com/about/

I eat them too, I haven't tested them but I don't seem to react to them (however I'm LSD more than strict NSD). They're meant to have a lot of health benefits and they are quite versatile.
I use them in baking, or in a chia seed pudding that i'll have for breakfast (recipe from Bettyrawker) basically mix almond milk, grated coconut, chia seeds, honey, cocoa powder and some berries. I personnally heat it up in a small pan, the seeds absord some of the liquid and you end up with a porridge like type of hot filling breakfast. Or I do the same but instead of cocoa and berries i put mashed (very ripe bananas) or homemade applesauce and cinammon and vanilla.

Unfortunately they give me alot of gas. I am currently trying to follow the Autoimmune Paleo diet and seeds of any kind are not allowed.
