chia seeds
2 interactions related to chia seeds
chia seeds + warfarin
Chia seeds are high in alpha-linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid) and soluble fiber. Omega-3 intake at high doses may mildly inhibit platelet aggregation and could theoretically enhance warfarin's anticoagulant effect, while the soluble fiber may also blunt warfarin absorption when taken at the same time.

chia seeds + blood thinners
Chia seeds are high in plant-form omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid) and soluble fiber, both of which can mildly reduce platelet aggregation and theoretically add to the bleeding risk of warfarin, DOACs, aspirin, and antiplatelet drugs. The Drugs.com chia monograph explicitly flags caution with anticoagulants based on case reports for related species.
