Due to these properties, flax seeds are great for your heart, vascular system, and gastrointestinal health.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6567199\/\">Few studies<\/a> and clinical trials state that the consumption of flax seeds may reduce weight, fasting blood glucose and triglyceride levels. But, additional research is needed to prove these claims conclusively.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2) Chia Seeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Chia seeds are considered superfoods and are an excellent plant-based source of alpha-linolenic acid ( a type of omega-3 fatty acid).<\/p>\n<p>This makes chia seeds a great alternative for vegans and vegetarians. Like flax seeds, chia seeds are loaded with fibre, protein, calcium, phosphorous and zinc.<\/p>\n<p>Some early studies state that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitterfly.com\/blog\/how-to-lose-weight-using-chia-seeds\/\">chia seed consumption may help in weight loss<\/a>&#8211; thanks to their high fibre content. However, more data is required to conclusively prove the weight loss and insulin-sensitivity-improving properties of these tiny wonder seeds.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>3) Pumpkin Seeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fitterfly.com\/blog\/pumpkin-seeds-for-weight-loss\/\">Pumpkin seeds<\/a> are a rich storehouse of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3746528\/\">fatty acids, phytosterols, antioxidants like carotenoids and tocopherol<\/a> and minerals like zinc and selenium in traces.<\/p>\n<p>These seeds offer several health benefits, for e.g., the pumpkin seed oil is used to prevent the progression of arthritis, and eating the seeds is said to lower hypercholesterolemia etc. Zinc in pumpkin seeds also helps boost immunity.<\/p>\n<p>You could try and replace unhealthy or fatty snacks with nuts and seeds, including pumpkin seeds. This helps reduced caloric consumption and subsequently causes weight loss.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4) Sunflower Seeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Like other seeds, sunflower seeds also have a good amount of minerals, vitamins B and E and selenium. The antioxidant content of sunflower seeds helps protect the body cells from the risk of chronic diseases, including heart disease, diabetes and some cancer types.<\/p>\n<p>A few studies on sunflower seeds state that they may help r<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC6566515\/\">educe weight and improve lipid profile and overall fat mass<\/a>. However, more research is required to prove the weight loss benefits of sunflower seeds.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5) Sesame Seeds<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Tiny seeds with oodles of flavour, sesame seeds have been used in India for thousands of years and for a good reason. They are a rich source of fibre and nutritious plant protein and help lower cholesterol, triglyceride and blood pressure levels.<\/p>\n<p>While eating sesame seeds is considered healthy for many body systems, its effect on weight loss and body composition has not been conclusively proven yet.<\/p>\n<p><span data-sheets-root=\"1\" data-sheets-value=\"{&quot;1&quot;:2,&quot;2&quot;:&quot;\n
