Default Chia seeds or other fiber supplements?

They are talking about chia seeds over on the South Beach diet section of 3fc.

I wonder if adding flax seeds or chia to the plan is a good idea. I'm thinking of picking up some benefiber anyway. Might try the next new thing. The texture sounds kinda awful tho I may want to hide it in food not make the lemon fresca.

Chia has 139 calories per ounce-Ouch but 11 grams of fiber and 10% of your calcium. Oddly even with the whole wheat and whole grains Fitday says I'm low on fiber and on potassium.

I did not find the chia seeds. I will finish of the metemucil(which I hate) then decide if I need to keep supplementing
