You mean.... you become a Sunflower.
I love these questions, every insecure person thinks them ahaha.
But really if you've eaten too many on one occasion and feel guilty don't worry, the body adapts itself. Continuously overeating them could cause you to go to the toilet more (provided you have had enough water) and have oily skin, plus like other nuts they are high in calories which could inhibit your weight loss opportunities if you are on a diet with limited physical activity. If you are not overweight or anything and its occasionally you overeat them, you should be fine as you will use some of the calories in your sleep for homeostasis, plus they will keep hunger down (just wait until you are hungry again). Sunflower seeds do have good antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits from fat soluble vitamins like E, B1, and minerals such as Magnesium, Copper, Trytophan, selenium, phosphorous, and folate. Oh and they are also 'supposed' to help lower bad cholesterol.
Just general knowledge, anyone correct me if I am wrong. :)
A one cup serving of sunflower seeds, with the shells on, eaten every day will not harm the normal healthy person. However, sunflower seeds are high in fat and calories when they are raw. If you have them fried or cooked in oil, the amount of fat and number of calories skyrockets.
You don't really want to eat the shells (hulls). They are primarily fiber, and even though it is recommended that we consume more fiber, nutritionist don't mean this type of fiber. One or two hulls is fine, but eating a lot can cause intestinal impaction. Not only that, but the sharp edges of the shell can puncture or attach anywhere in the lining of the digestive tract.
My answer is yes out of all the types of seeds they eat they eat sunflower seeds.
You can eat sunflower seeds from the sunflower.
yes, they can eat sunflower seeds.

You cannot eat a sunflower, but you can eat it's seeds. Hope I helped. ;)
Some seeds you can eat are pumpkin, sesame, and sunflower. Seeds often sprouted and eaten are alfalfa, brocolli, lentils, radish, and many others. This is certainly not an all-inclusive list.
