Keep refrigerated and consume germinated sunflower seeds within 7 days of purchase when nutrient content is highest. We suggest consuming at least 2 tablespoons of raw germinated sunflower seeds per day for highest nutrient & probiotic content, but it may also be cooked.
Cooking sunflower seeds will remove its probiotic value, but prebiotic fiber, most of its bioactive content and vitamins will remain.
Consume sunflower seeds before the radicle (root) doubles the length of the grain.

Germination is a natural test of grain quality: only high quality, organic, non-GMO, correctly grown and stored, undamaged grain will germinate.
The Volgin team was awarded a patent for naturetech grain germination in 2016.
Sunflower seeds are considered to be the best whole food source of Vitamin E, an antioxidant that helps protect cell membranes, brain cells, and lower the risk for chronic diseases.
Sunflower seeds offer two times more protein than walnuts and pecans, and six times more Vitamin E than peanuts!
Phytochemicals found in sunflower seeds promote cognitive functions and lower bad cholesterol.
Naturally occurring chemical compounds found in sunflower seeds inhibit the growth of cancer cells and help fight colon, prostate and breast cancer.
If you haven’t finished your germinated sunflower seeds before they overgrow, you can put the seeds on top of healthy soil to receive microgreens within 3-5 days.
After 2-3 months, you’ll be able to harvest the next generation of seeds yourself!
