Why Pumpkin Spice Chia Pudding Supports Midlife Health
Pumpkin spice chia pudding isn’t just delicious, it’s biologically smart. Here’s why:
- Chia seeds are rich in omega-3s and fiber, which help regulate blood sugar and support hormone metabolism.
- Pumpkin is loaded with beta-carotene and potassium, supporting adrenal health and energy production.
- Cinnamon and nutmeg help stabilize blood sugar and reduce inflammation.
- The pudding’s slow-digesting texture helps you feel full longer, without the crash.
This is the kind of recipe that whispers, “You’re safe to slow down.”
You don’t need much for this one. Pumpkin purée, chia seeds, plant milk cinnamon – that’s the base.
It’s quick to prep, easy to batch, and built for steady energy.
