10 High-Fiber Chia Seed Smoothies That Help You Poop (and Boost Gut Health)

Chia seeds are tiny but mighty: they’re packed with soluble and insoluble fiber — often 6–10+ grams per serving — that can help add bulk, soften stool and support regular bowel movements when paired with plenty of fluids and fruit. Blending them into smoothies makes them easy to enjoy for breakfast, snack time or anytime your gut needs a little extra help.

  • Pair smoothies with plenty of water throughout the day to keep things moving.
  • Customize sweetness with dates, honey or ripe fruit rather than added sugar.
