Ingredients

For the Bariatric Seed Mix:

  • 1 cup golden flaxseed, ground
  • 1 cup chia seeds
  • 1 cup raw hemp hearts
  • 1/4 cup psyllium husk powder (optional)

For One Serving:

  • 2 tablespoon bariatric seed mix
  • 8 ounce water, unsweetened almond milk, or protein shake

Instructions

  • Grind the flaxseed in batches of about ⅓ cup at a time in a spice or coffee grinder for 30–45 seconds per batch, until it forms a fine, pale powder with no visible seed fragments.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the ground flaxseed, chia seeds, hemp hearts, and psyllium husk powder (if using) for about 1 minute, until evenly combined.
  • Transfer the mix to an airtight glass jar, seal tightly, and shake gently to settle it evenly.
  • To make one serving, scoop 2 tablespoons of the mix into a shaker bottle or glass.
  • Add 8 ounces of your chosen liquid, shake or stir well, and let it rest for 2–3 minutes before drinking to allow the chia to thicken.

Notes

  • Store the dry mix in the refrigerator in an airtight jar for up to 3 weeks for best freshness, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Always shake the storage jar before scooping — the mix settles slightly over time, and shaking keeps each serving consistent.
  • Start with 1 tablespoon per serving if you're new to this drink, and increase gradually as tolerated.
  • This recipe is not medical advice — follow your bariatric team's specific nutrition guidance for portion size and timing.
