A little extra : Seeds are excellent sources of protein and fiber, as well as minerals and vitamins. Sesame seeds are an excellent source of calcium and magnesium. Sunflower seeds are rich in vitamin E and selenium. Pumpkin seeds are rich in manganese and phosphorus. Chia seeds are rich in omega-3. The benefits are numerous. Remember to add them, in small quantities, to your salads, soups, toast or simply nibble on them when you're feeling peckish!
