Eating sunflower seeds, either as a snack or as an ingredient in other foods, is expected to become very popular in 2022, mainly because the seeds are a plant-based source of protein, fats, and other nutrients. The seeds are becoming a staple ingredient in many grocery items, including crackers, milk alternatives, nut butters, ice creams, and more. One medical expert says sunflower seeds are high in healthy fats, plant compounds, fiber, vitamins and minerals, and contain some plant protein. They may help to decrease inflammation, and chronic diseases like heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Other health benefits include reduction in cardiovascular disease, anxiety and depression, the risk of stroke and cancer, and improvement in bone health.
