A beetroot chia drink is made by blending beetroot with liquid and chia seeds. Let the mixture stand so the seeds absorb liquid and thicken it, then stir again before drinking. Lemon juice can balance the earthy beet flavour.
A beetroot chia drink provides fibre, omega-3 fats from chia, and naturally occurring nitrates from beetroot. These nutrients can make it a nourishing drink, but it is not a treatment for a health condition.
Yes, you can have a beetroot chia drink before exercise. Beetroot contains natural nitrates, while chia adds fibre and thickens the drink. If fibre bothers your stomach during activity, avoid drinking it right before a workout.
A beetroot chia drink does not cause weight loss on its own. Its fibre may help you feel full, but it only supports weight management if it fits into your overall eating habits and does not simply add extra energy.
Yes, soaking chia seeds in a beetroot chia drink lets them absorb liquid and develop their characteristic gel-like texture. Stir the drink again after it stands to prevent clumps and distribute the seeds evenly.
Yes, beetroot in a beetroot chia drink can temporarily make urine or stool look pink or red. Beet pigments are usually the cause; seek medical advice if the colour change persists or comes with other symptoms.
You can drink a beetroot chia drink at any time, such as with breakfast or as a snack. There is no need to have it at a specific hour, though its fibre may feel uncomfortable for some people close to bedtime.
A beetroot chia drink has a mildly sweet, earthy beet flavour and a thick, gel-like texture from the chia. Lemon can make it taste fresher, while adding fruit will make it sweeter.
Keep a beetroot chia drink covered in the refrigerator and aim to drink it within one or two days. Chia continues to absorb liquid, so the drink will thicken; stir it before serving and discard it if it seems spoiled.
No, a beetroot chia drink does not need added sugar because beetroot already has a mildly sweet taste. If you prefer it sweeter, blend in fruit; honey or sugar will increase the drink's total sugar.

Beetroot chia drink combines beetroot with chia seeds in a colourful, easy-to-make drink. Beetroot brings an earthy flavour and vivid colour, while the chia seeds absorb liquid as they stand, giving the drink a gently thick, slightly gel-like texture. Recipes vary, and the mixture can be thinned with water or adjusted to taste.
Serve it chilled for breakfast, as a snack, or as a refreshing drink in warm weather. Its flavour is earthy with a mild sweetness, and the seeds add texture. It provides fibre, while chia contributes omega-3; a 100 g portion has 46 calories. If you prefer a lighter, smoother drink, add water and stir or shake it well before serving, since the seeds can settle as it sits.
High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
