Sunflower seeds

Many of the health benefits of sunflower seeds come from fiber. Fiber is the indigestible part of a carbohydrate.

It helps to regulate bowels and blood sugar, aids in satiety (feeling full) and can help to lower cholesterol.

Also, the vitamins and minerals in these seeds provide health benefits. Vitamin E is an important fat-soluble vitamin that is known to have antioxidant properties.

It also helps normal nerve function and boosts immunity. And phosphorous is a structural component of bones and teeth, DNA, and cell membranes. It also helps in assisting in energy production and storage.
