I don't know that they will help you lose weight - just help you to eat healthier and that's why you would lose weight. I eat them everyday of my life - I'm a 72 year old very active female and am living large.

Due to the high fiber and protein content, many health experts believe that chia seeds can help with weight loss, but we do not make this claim. We suggest you consult with your physician or nutritionist for this type of information.Thanks,Healthworks

I have used Bob's Red Mill Chia seeds for a couple of years and I've NEVER had any stalks or sand or dirt in them! I've bought them at our local grocery store and online at Amazon with no problems.

The Chia seeds are tiny black and white seeds. So they are the seeds. I went to web 's to make sure. Hope this helps.

Mine says it expires 10/16, but I checked on the internet on organic chia seed and it says it is good 2 plus years in pantry and 4 plus years in fridge/freezer. I never had this seed go bad on me and I buy it often. It is Organic, Pesticide & chemical free.

yes, just make sure hopper is clean and closes fully or you will lose a bit of seed.

I don't think this will work for chia or flax seeds. I think they would be too small. I Probably would not put anything smaller than a popcorn kernel.

I don't know if you can grow chia seeds in the sprout bag, but I'd be very surprised if you could not as it is designed to handle all kinds of seeds. For a definitive answer, I suggest you contact the Rita, the Sprout Lady, at 1-800-777-6887. I have spoken with Rita numerous times, and she is most helpful. However, she is somewhat difficult to get hold of so you will need to be persistent.

Seeds will fall into juice. I would recommend reaming with a strainer over the bowl.

The packaging is perfect because it comes in a re sealable bag. You take what you need then seal it back. I intend to order from them again because my entire family uses chia seeds and it goes fast.

I live in Colombia (South America) in hot and humid climate. I kept my chia seeds in the freezer and it worked perfectly for four months.

I did not experience anything but seeds in my bag of Bob's Red Mill Chia. I take a scoop of them every day and have tried several types.

These seeds didn't germinate. It bought this seeds last year and I got the same issue, they seems too old When I check and open them up they rot inside. You better off buying the melon itself in the produce market and look for those that start turning yellow/yellowish and let it ripe in room temperature until it becomes mushy to touch. Open and if the seed coating are red they have a better tendency to germinate. Just wipe the red coating with paper towel and pick those that look shiny and dark in color, those white ones are no good either. Let dry about three days in room temperature and sow them, within five days they sprout, that's what I did last year and now I have more than enough seeds to grow. These seeds didn't germinate.

Chia seeds have a shelf life of between four and five years, so I don't think you run a very high risk of expiration. While you wouldn't know absolutely that they won't be approaching expiration, it would be highly unlikely. I would take the chance as it is infinitesimal.

Have you tried it without a seed plate? Have you also tried to turn it inside the box by hand, could be something caught behind seed plate.Ruben

Hi Michael. I use to buy and eat organic as much as I can and this is why I ordered those Chia seeds. Hard to say if they are better or not than the non-organic because nutrients are similar but when it comes to seeds, I am always concerned about pesticides or other chemical treatments. So even though I was not impressed by the packaging (the bag doesn't seal very well once open) so far I am OK with this brand. Recommendation = soak 1 or 2 seeds spoons at the time and put it in a small container to soak in your fridge. You will get a kind of jelly that is very convenient to add to a shake for example. I never eat the seeds directly : way too small to be crushed by your teeth....A bag lasts very long because you don't want to take too much every day (laxative effect....). Hope that this will help you make a decision on your buying.

Flax is mucilaginous meaning it's really slimy when soaked like chia. So, it's not easy to sprout unless you want microgreens in which case you will need some sort of medium (i.e. dirt) for them to sink roots and sprout.
