Many people love sunflower seeds and I do too, especially when you know how to cook them right, but since raw is healthier then I’m fine with eating raw seeds too. If you fry the seeds while they are still in their shells then that tastes so good, but make sure not to burn them, keep stirring them, and fry them dry, just lightly. Anyway, here is the reason raw is better:
- Vitamin A
- Vitamin B5, Pantothenic Acid
- Vitamin B3, Niacin
- Lots of Vitamin E
- Lots of Vitamin B1, Thiamin
- Manganese
- Magnesium
- Copper
- Tryptophan
- Selenium
- Phosphorus
- Folate
- Carbohydrates
- Protein
- Dietary Fiber
- Natural Fats
- Calcium
- Iron
- Potassium
- Omega 3 fatty Acids
- Omega 6 fatty Acids

and more of other good and healthy stuff but in smaller amounts. Then there is benefits list following, ofcourse…
