Seeds aren't just good food for birds, there are many health benefits of seeds for people, too! They are high in many essential minerals and vitamins, a source of polyunsaturated fatty acids, provide protein and fiber, and are low in sodium. Those who are allergic to tree nuts can use edible seeds to add crunch to their trail mix and texture to baked goods. They can also enjoy seed butters in place of nut butters. Adding more healthy seeds to your diet is as easy as sprinkling them on your next bowl of salad, cereal or stir fry.
