Can chia seeds detox your body ?

No: Not sure what substance(s) you are trying to detox from, but chia won't detox you of anything. It's a good fiber, so it may capture some substances from the GI tract but won't do anything for those that have been absorbed into the bloodstream.

Won't hurt: There have only been three documented studies on the benefit of chia seeds. None confirmed they detox the body. They are good for your health though. Chia seeds are a concentrated food containing healthy omega-3 fatty acids, carbohydrates, protein, fiber, antioxidants, and calcium.
