You may want to be careful with Chia seeds. Althought they contain a considerable amount of soluble fiber (6-7%) they also contain about 5 times as much insoluble fiber (33-35%).

As you probably know from reading Heather's information insoluble fiber can be a strong IBS triggers. You might try using one part finely ground Chia seeds to five parts acaia fiber to balance things out.
