chia seeds and ecstasy

[alyK]

Does anyone know if drinking a chia seed gel before taking ecstasy would help with the dehydration? From my research chia seeds are good at preventing dehydration during works outs and while going to an edm show isn't exercise there would still be lots of sweating. They soak up ten times their weight in water and apparently can be used to pre-hydrate and help to retain water. Does anyone have any thoughts?

Couldn't hurt... chia seeds are definitely good and nutritious but I certainly wouldn't count on chia seeds alone to keep you hydrated, especially at a show were you'll probably be dancing for long hours. Drinking fluids is the best route... gatorade and water!

I eat chia seeds every day. I highly suggest everyone adds them to your diet. So healthy.

probably wont hurt, definitely unnecessary.

Would there be an increased risk of hyponatremia using a beefy water-retention agent like this?

 

[epic11]

no.

It couldn?t hurt. Also chia seeds naturally contain high levels of tryptophan.
