Doctors have found out how much harm sunflower seeds, which are used as a “snack”, can cause to the human body. It turned out that the danger is associated with peeling the product.

Many people peel the seeds with their teeth, but this should be done exclusively with their hands. In particular, if the product is dirty, dust and bacteria can get into the oral cavity, where they spread rapidly. As a result, this threatens with caries or inflammatory processes. In addition, the skin of the seeds also damages tooth enamel, which creates additional inconvenience and can lead to dental disease.

Experts also do not recommend eating seeds when you have a sore throat. The solid particles from this product can irritate inflamed mucous membranes, interfering with the healing process. In addition, seeds are usually quite high in calories.
