Health Benefits of this Keto Mocha Chia Seed Pudding
#1: Gives Your Brain a Boost
Chia seeds contain ALA (alpha-lipoic acid), which is an omega-3 fatty acid that our body doesn’t produce on its own. We convert ALA to EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), but usually this is a slow process, unless you’re consuming foods that are rich in ALA (like chia seeds).
But what does this mean for the brain? Studies have shown that there are strong links between consuming omega-3 fatty acids and brain health. One study in particular discussed the benefits of omega-3 fatty acids in conjunction with those suffering from mental health disorders, such as bipolar disorder and depression [*].
Since our gut is our second brain and our brain consists of fatty acids, it makes sense that MCTs provide our brain and body with the energy it needs to thrive. They provide support to the central nervous system, which is directly linked to brain health.
#2: Promotes Healthy Digestion
Chia seeds are able to absorb 10 times the amount they weigh and pack a punch in the fiber department, with 11 grams per serving.
Consuming chia seeds regularly will help keep you hydrated, fuller for longer amounts of time (helping curb those non-keto sugar cravings), and regular. Literally.
#3: Boosts Your Metabolism and Energy Levels
When your brain gets a boost, you’re whole body follows suit.
MCTs are easily digested and instantly used for fuel by making ketones readily available for the body to use. And if ketones are readily available, ketosis is achieved sooner rather than later, which is what you want when following the ketogenic diet.

11g of carbs is considered keto?
It depends on your macro goals
subtract the 10 g of fiber for net 1 g carb
Hi! In reference to the above comment, don’t you subtract the fiber = 1 g carbs?
If one serving = 1/2 cup, how many servings does the recipe yield?
Thanks!
