Chia seeds are an excellent source of fiber:

Thanks to its water retention capacity (WRC), its cationic exchange capacity (CEC), its organic molecule absorption capacity (OMAC), and its water absorption capacity (WAC), the fiber in Chia seeds has the ideal characteristics for the food industry, compared to other fiber sources such as flax seeds, vanilla sheath waste, and wheat bran.
 
Mucilage in Chia seeds as a food ingredient:

Due to its physics-chemical characteristics, mucilage can be used as thickener in a series of applications, because of its excellent hydrating capacity.
 
Chia seeds as a protein source of high biological value:

Chia seeds contain 20% protein with all essential amino acids, which makes it a vegetal protein alternative with high nutritional, economic and versatile value.
 
Chia whole bread contains large amounts of Omega-3 and fiber:

Whole bread made with chia seeds and with flax seeds were compared for their nutritional characteristics. The study showed that unlike the bread with flax, bread with Chia has high nutritional value; in addition, it retains its functional properties due to the large content of total dietary fiber and Omega-3 fatty acids; furthermore, it is highly antioxidant and contains calcium and phosphorus.
Chia seeds absorb and retain water and so are sometimes used for weight loss.

Chia seeds are high in protein and other nutrients.
Chia is grown commercially for its seed oil, an oil that is rich in omega-3 fatty acids.  
In a one-ounce (28 g) sample, dried chia seeds contained 9% of the Daily Value for protein (4g), 13% fat (9g) (57% of which is ALA) and 42% dietary fiber (11g), based on a daily intake of 2000 calories.
The seeds also contain the essential minerals phosphorus, manganese, calcium, potassium and sodium in amounts comparable to other edible, nutritious seeds, such as flax or sesame.
