I read that sunflower seeds are a good sleep inducing nightime snack, but what about just the kernels?

I'm referring to what's inside the sunflower shell, as those are sold also, next to peanuts snacks..etc..

Are you kidding? Why would you eat the shell?
Reply:I hope you haven't been eating the whole thing at night (or any other time) - that would give ANYBODY nightmares. The kernels are what most people are talking about when they say "sunflower seeds" - unless maybe they're gardeners!
Reply:In Spain they sell them toasted with salt, they are very yummy, you have to remove the shell and the taste on the shell stay in your mouth, mmmmmmmmmmmm


You can do them at home. You need:





sunflower seeds, salt and water


In a bowl put the seeds (with shells), salt and cover them with water. Leave several hours or overnight.


Drain them and put in a oven tray and bake them for a while, I don't really look the time, just check them every now and them.


Enjoy
Reply:when people say the seeds..they mean whats inside. the kernals are the actual seed. the outside is not really digestable
Reply:So are bananas and they are not going to give you indigestion, the oils and protiens in the nuts/seeds of any kind will be of help, almonds are much better for you.
Reply:Eating shell is harmless but not recommended to eat.
