8 seeds you should be eating to improve your health
The basics of healthy eating are pretty simple.
Boiled down to the fundamentals, it's about eating lean protein, whole grains, and plenty of fruits and veggies, perhaps with the occasional dash of pickle juice for a few added benefits.
Of course, if you're looking for even more benefits to your healthy diet, it's a good idea to take a look at one of the most impactful and underappreciated sources of nutrients around: seeds.
Seeds, like their more vaunted cousins, nuts, are a natural product of most plants, and can often be found inside a fruit or seed pod.
They come in a vast range, some of which are inedible or even poisonous, and some of which can give you all sorts of hard-to-come-by nutritional benefits. Plenty are well known, like sunflower seeds, while some are just starting to be fully recognized for their healthy contents!
