The sunflower seed is the fruit of the sunflower. Sunflower seeds are rich in the B complex vitamins, which are essential for a healthy nervous system, and are a good source of phosphorus, magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, protein and vitamin E. They also contain trace minerals, zinc, manganese, copper, chromium and carotene as well as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids - types of 'good' fat that may help to protect the arteries. Sunflower seeds are popular immune boosters. They may also help protect against heart disease while their vitamin B can help in the fight against stress. While sunflower seeds are good to snack on, they can be used to make protein bars, biscuits, as bases for cheese cakes, dressing on salads, added to bakes, in pestos or to vegetables in everyday cooking.
