Our story
How we got our start
Our parents always encouraged all-natural, made-from-scratch cooking. In 2003, we made our pumpkin seeds for a Halloween party. They were an instant hit! As our friends gobbled them down, we realized our passion for sharing healthy snacks with the people we love. In that moment, Gerbs was born!What makes our product unique
Our products are the safest and most nutritious because we manufacture on our 100% dedicated roasting & packaging equipment. Our entire product line is Top 14 food allergy free from the following: gluten, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, soy, dairy, eggs, fish, shellfish, crustacean, mustard & sesame.Why we love what we do
Gerbs makes healthy foods that you will feel good feeding to your family. Our mission is to provide delicious foods that can be eaten safely by those affected by severe food allergies. There is nothing artificial about Gerbs. Our products are non-gmo & free from preservatives, trans-fat, and MSG.Product Description
Gerbs Raw Sunflower Seed Kernels - Shelled (hulled) Top Superfood
Vitamin E Sunflower seeds contribute to your daily intake of vitamin E, a family of fat-soluble nutrients. Vitamin E helps protect your cells against free radicals, chemicals that oxidize and damage your proteins, cell membranes and DNA. This vitamin also promotes healthy circulation by helping you make red blood cells. An ounce of hulled sunflower seeds contains 10 milligrams of vitamin E, two-thirds of your recommended daily intake of the nutrient, according to the Office of Dietary Supplements.
Vitamin B-1 Sunflower seeds also offer health benefits due to their vitamin B-1, or thiamine, content. Thiamine activates enzymes within your cells, helping to drive chemical reactions your cells need to function. Getting enough thiamine helps you derive energy from food and produce nucleic acids, the building blocks that make up your DNA. Men need 1.2 milligrams of thiamine each day, according to the Linus Pauling Institute, and women need 1.1 milligrams. Each ounce of hulled sunflower seeds provides 0.4 milligram of this nutrient.
Copper Benefit your skin and hair by eating sunflower seeds, a source of copper. Eating an ounce of hulled sunflower seeds provides you with 512 micrograms of copper, more than half of the 900 micrograms you need daily, according to the Linus Pauling Institute. Your body uses copper to make melanin, a pigment protein that helps give your skin and hair their color. Melanin molecules absorb ultraviolet radiation from the sun, protecting you from tissue damage as a result of sun exposure. Copper also supports your metabolism to help your cells produce energy.
Getting More Sunflower Seeds Incorporating sunflower seeds into your diet can be as simple as sprinkling an ounce of the seeds over hot or cold cereal or over your salad. Get more creative by adding sunflower seeds to tuna, chicken, egg or chickpea salad sandwiches, or sprinkle the seeds into a wrap. Alternately, soak the seeds in water overnight, then blend into pureed soups to add nutrients and texture, or purchase our sunflower seed butter, an alternative to peanut butter.

Gerbs Raw Sunflower Seed Kernels - 2 Pound Re-Sealable Bag
Properly Store Gerbs Sunflower Seeds
We strongly recommend storing in an airtight (dark colored/opaque) container in a cool, dark environment like a pantry or kitchen cabinet, away from direct exposure to sunlight or excessive heat like an oven. The amount of times you open the container and let in the harmful effects of oxygen will only increase the likelihood of rancidity; thus we encourage you to not empty more than 1 pound of product at a time. For prolonged time frames place your pumpkin seeds in the refrigerator, YOU CAN FREEZE IT TOO!

These seeds have a great roasted flavor and just enough salt to make them delicious. Why wouldn't you cut the salt if they still taste that good! I figured I should leave a review for them to let them know how grateful I am for them.

Tried to order the raw pumpkin seeds. The same package went from 23 dollar per package to 75 PLUS an additional 16 delivery. No explanation on the price increase.
Keep an eye out on the pricing.
