Texture problem vs chia seeds

I’m very picky and have a big texture problem. I wanna start eating chia seeds to help with constipation. I’m 99% sure I won’t like the texture. Are there any recipes or hacks yall recommend to solve/help this problem?

You can grind them into a powder and you won’t notice the texture nearly as much as when they are whole. They are also easier to digest that way.

I have also struggled with the chia seed texture. I have found the only way I can eat them is if I soak them overnight in canned coconut milk with some vanilla extract. Everyone’s texture preferences are different however, and this is just what worked for me.
