Free radicals are molecules that destroy the structure of our cells, resulting in a state of inflammation in our body. Thus sunflower seeds due to their high content of Vitamin E seem to be able to reduce the symptoms of asthma, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Studies show that adequate intake of vitamin E appears to be associated with a reduced risk of atherosclerosis. A cup of sunflower seeds provides 62% of the BP in vitamin E. Also, their content of monounsaturated fatty acids further enhances their protective action, as the intake of unsaturated fatty acids, the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke due to the positive effect they have on our lipid profile (reduction of 'bad' cholesterol and increase of 'good'.

They detoxify us. The high content of sunflower seeds in antioxidants such as vitamin E, polyphenols and selenium helps to remove the toxic substances that accumulate (oxidative stress) daily in our body.

This process reduces the risk of various chronic diseases due to oxidative stress (cardiovascular disease, premature aging, degenerative diseases).
