It is well known that sunflower seeds are one of the most nutritious (containing almost every vitamin except vitamin C) and healthy foods to be found in the dried fruits sector. This is due to their high content of unsaturated fatty acids. Analysis data indicate that from the total acids about 70% are polyunsaturated, 20% monounsaturated and only 10% saturated. It should be noted here that unsaturated fatty acids are beneficial to the human organism and essential for proper nutrition. Sunflower seeds do not contain any cholesterol at all.
