Many people love sunflower seeds. Someone likes their taste, someone bites them to calm down. However, the habit of eating seeds, especially in large quantities, can cause serious harm to health, warned an endocrinologist.

The expert notes that sunflower seeds have quite a lot of harmful properties. First, they have a large amount of fatty acids, and omega-6 is predominant. In large quantities, they can increase inflammation in the body.

Also, sunflower seeds are very high in calories, they contain about 600 kcal per 100 g. And it is very easy to get carried away and eat a lot. In addition, they stimulate appetite. “If you don't eat enough seeds to fill your stomach, you will have to “catch up” with other food,” warns the doctor.
