If I substitute metamucil for chia seeds, will it have the same effect?

Since chia seeds bulk up in liquid to move food through your intestines, can I use it the same way I would use metamucil? I have a hard time choking down psyllium husk (like drinking sand in water) but i love chia seeds and drinking it in fresh pressed juice is much easeir for me to down.
