Chia pudding is one of those great foods that can be enjoyed when you are experiencing almost any side-effect. Chia is full of good fibre which may help if you have constipation. You can use coconut milk or add coconut cream if you have lost weight. Stir through yoghurt before eating if have a dry mouth or difficulty swallowing and need more moisture in your food. Chia seeds are also a good source of protein, which will help your muscles during when you are not able to eat very much.
