Thread: Sunflower Seeds

I was just reading something about b6 trying to find some foods to add into my diet that might contain high levels of it when I noticed that someone had said nuts and seeds were a good source of B6. I looked it up on the planters website (which is very informative) and discovered that sunflower seeds are the BEST nut to eat if you're looking get a bit more b6 and zinc. What makes me giggle a little is that the whole time I was looking up info on b6 I was already eating sunflower seeds. I eat them all day when I'm on my computer. Funny. . .

I couldn't find somewhere that said exactly how much b6 and zinc you can get out of sunflower seeds but the planters website said that 1 oz of shelled sunflower seeds contains 170 calories, and 10% of your daily b6 and zinc needs. While that's not nearly as much as those energy drinks I've seen people talking about on here, I thought I would share my new found information.

Happy Munching.

lol they tast any good? I might get some

you have never tried sunflower seeds neil you should go get some just to try em lol

There good to fiddle around in your mouth if your bored , or that just me :/

I think they're loads of fun. My mom uses them to keep herself from biting her nails and I used them for a while when I was quitting smoking (I eventually started again unfortunately but they were very helpful at the time).

yeah there quiet helpfull to me as i have OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) so it keeps me occupied.
