I love them as much as a parrot does! And I cannot begin to stress on just how good it is, especially for the little life growing inside me.

Bursting with Vitamin E, B1, B5, Manganese, Magnesium, Copper, Tryptophan, Selenium, Phosphorus and Folate — this little seed has over 80 nutritional benefits. Read it here yourself to be amazed!

Cracking the shell of these tiny gems can be quite addictive. I can sit through an entire one hour Cantonese drama finishing a cup full. That’s about 110g of seeds, including the shell of course. Definitely not those pre-shelled ones!

I can probably go on cracking like an avid parrot, if not worried about getting too “heaty”. I’m always guilty of not drinking enough water, but somehow I go to the loo 3x more than others. And now with the pregnancy, I go 5x more! *humph*

Expecting Mommies, if you’re looking for a healthy snack for you and baby — A handful of sunflower seeds will take care of your needs to munch and provide baby a significant amounts of Vitamin E, Magnesium and Selenium.

Here’s to the beautiful Sunflower and it’s magnificent Seed! *cheers*
