Sowing "sunflower" is a big health risk

Despite the multiple benefits of sunflower seeds, they can cause damage because they contain a high percentage of calories and also contain cadmium, a heavy metal, which can be consumed in large quantities for a long time to damage the kidneys. The WHO recommends not to exceed 490 micrograms of cadmium per week for an adult of 70 kg.It should be noted that sunflower seeds contain a high amount of this mineral compared to other foods it it is therefore recommended to consume it in moderate quantities.

However, taking sunflower or seeding does not usually affect appendicitis in people who take it, and nothing helps to confirm it.

Andrei Krieger, head of the Department of Abdominal Surgery at the Russian Vishnevsky Research Center, said that there was no conclusive evidence of the development of appendicitis and its association with the "sunflower seed" .

He added that there was no connection between the development of appendicitis and the consumption of seedlings.

Factors that increase the risk of appendicitis are generally unknown, has not shown that lifestyle, physical activity, psychological problems or dietary preferences affect the disease.

The causes of inflammation are similar in men and women, the disease is less common in the elderly and inflammation can not be treated with antibiotics.
