Some find pleasure in roasting sunflower seeds on a cold winter evening and sitting comfortably in front of the TV. But not everyone thinks this is something that will satisfy them.

Some are staunch opponents of this and express open disgust with this habit, which they consider unpleasant for others. And there are reasons for that. It is very important to consider where it is appropriate and where it is unacceptable to peel seeds.

In Romania, hatching seeds on the street was officially banned a few years ago. Posters in the streets of Bucharest urged citizens not to pollute with seeds. But this ban did not reach the villages, as it was perceived as fantastic and unreal.

A similar ban was imposed by Vladivostok city officials during Vladimir Putin's visit in 2002 to prevent residents from exposing themselves to the important guest.

Some would say "full circus", but it is also forbidden to eat seeds in the circus. For years, it has been believed that picking seeds lowers the rating of this entertainment establishment and clowns often ask the spectators sitting in the front rows to stop their activity.

Peeling seeds while talking to your interlocutor is a sign of bad manners among Muslims. But there are also quite opposite examples. A cinema was opened in Yerevan where, in addition to smoking, seeds could be peeled.

In addition to all the above, the peeling of seeds helps to destroy tooth enamel. Sunflower with its powerful roots extracts lead and cadmium from the soil, causing kidney disease, hypertension, mental retardation.

All this enters our body except through refined oil and the direct consumption of sunflower seeds. Not to mention that some grandmothers treat their rheumatism by warming their feet in the still hot seeds and then selling them to us.

But there are also positive sides. It turns out that hatching seeds, in addition to helping to fill the time, also has a psychotherapeutic effect. The monotony and uniformity of this procedure gradually lead to a state close to trance.

A person stops paying attention to external stimuli and his nerves calm down, and this is very good for health. The seeds contain a large amount of vitamin E, which has a beneficial effect on male potency, it is a natural aphrodisiac.

In addition, the calcium content is the same as in milk and cream. For healthy and beautiful hair you need zinc, and in sunflower and pumpkin seeds it is present in large concentrations.
