Do sunflower seeds help you lose weight?

Sunflower seeds don't exactly help you lose weight. But they are a good, healthy snack for a weight loss program. They have lots of nutritional benefits. But like any food, you shouldn't overdo it. They're high in fat, but not saturated fat. And eating them throughout the day can be a calorie waster. Eating no more than about 1/4 cup a day should be fine. And salt does not make you gain weight, it only makes you retain water which causes only temporary weight gain. But it is better you eat the unsalted type. People with salt Allergies, which many people don't know if they have, can develop high blood pressure from salt.
