What it is

Organic sunflower seed kernels are the edible seeds from the center of the sunflower plant, grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. After harvesting, the seeds are shelled, and the kernels are often lightly roasted or processed for use in food products.

Why it's used

Sunflower kernels add a nutty flavor and crunchy texture to foods. They are frequently used in baked goods like breads and granola bars, as well as in cereals, salads, and snack mixes.

Health notes

Sunflower seed kernels are recognized by the FDA as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use in food. They are a source of nutrients like vitamin E and magnesium. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated sunflower oil, a derivative, and established safety guidelines. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical consumption.

Allergen info

Sunflower seeds are not one of the nine major allergens designated by the FDA. They do not contain gluten.
