Among the most popular seeds are usually called flaxseed, sesame, pumpkin and sunflower. But if we are talking about seeds without specification, the latter are meant by default.
It tightens like seeds, - people say about some exciting activity: having started to peel, it is extremely difficult to stop the process of peeling and eating fragrant seeds, unless they end up on their own. Clicking Like Seeds is another comparison describing simple solutions to difficult problems.
The source of the most beloved seeds - sunflower or sunflower - is not such a long-time resident of the country. Its appearance in Russia is associated with the first Russian emperor - Peter I. It is believed that it was he who sent the seeds of the sun flower, which he saw in Holland, to his homeland, and the sunflower delighted Russians for a long time exclusively with its decorative properties.
The extraction of vegetable oil from sunflower seeds in Russia on an industrial scale began a century later. The process of eating ripe seeds for food has become one of the favorite pastimes in itself and as an addition to various gatherings and parties. Seeds fried in a special way by each hostess were eaten in huge quantities.
Modern knowledge about the benefits and harms of this gift of nature for humans is very extensive and not always reliable. For example, there is a misconception that the peel (or husk) entering the stomach is sent exclusively to the appendix, further provoking its inflammation. Dried seeds have the highest level of usefulness, while roasted seeds taste better.
Useful substances are stored longer in unpeeled seeds, since fats are quickly oxidized without hulls. On the other hand, it is on the peel of an unrefined product that a lot of invisible dirt remains that passes into the mouth: stomatitis is one of the most common consequences. There is another negative factor inaccessible to the eye - the presence of cadmium in sunflower seeds. It is "pulled" from the soil by the roots of the flower and "stops" in its seeds. Therefore, an excessive enthusiasm for seeds can lead to kidney problems and diseases of the nervous system.
Seeds are prohibited for use before singing - they act negatively on the vocal cords. They are high in calories and can negate the effect of any diet and exercise. At the same time, they are a supplier of a set of trace elements, including zinc, fluorine, iron, calcium, magnesium, iodine. Prevention of diseases of the cardiovascular system involves the inclusion of sunflower seeds in the diet.
Having listed a far from complete list of useful and harmful properties, we can conclude that a moderate "friendship" with this wonderful gift of nature is necessary. But finding out whether it is useful to gnaw the seeds, as well as to peel, snap and even zushuste, we will receive only a negative answer. It turns out that all dentists unanimously recognize the destructive effect of the chewed peel of seeds on the enamel of the teeth.
