Product Description

Sunflower seeds are edible seeds harvested from the sunflower plant, a member of the Asteraceae family. These seeds have been cultivated for thousands of years and are known for their nutritional value and versatility. The seeds are composed of a hard black and white striped shell, enclosing the kernel or "meat" of the seed. The kernel is pale green and has a nutty flavor with a hint of sweetness. Sunflower seeds can be enjoyed in various forms, including raw, roasted, salted, or flavored. They are a powerhouse of essential nutrients, including protein, healthy fats, fiber, vitamins, and minerals.

Moreover, these seeds are also rich in antioxidants, particularly vitamin E, which helps protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
