Chia pudding is already a nutrient powerhouse, but this High-Protein Chia Pudding takes it to the next level!

By blending the chia seeds, this pudding becomes smooth, creamy, and easier to digest, making it perfect for GLP-1 users who need high-protein, easy-to-eat meals that won’t cause bloating or discomfort.
