the fun snack, Kuaci and its nutrition

So, I was alone at home that evening , My sister was in teacher training in other city. One of my neighbor kid came to my house and brought a pack of Kuaci, Kuaci is a snack that made of Sunflowers seed, it is tasty. I am not a fan of this snack, but I'd glad to eat it if it free kekeke.

I want to put my the picture that i have taken, but the brand is included, so I put a pictures of Kuaci which i search in web.
Since Kuaci made from the seed of Sunflower sure it has alot of nutrition, sunflowers seeds are a source of healthy fats (unsaturated) nearly 90%, vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, protein and phytochemicals that are very good. Additionally, sunflower seeds contain polyunsaturated fats (linoleic acid) and single (oleic acid), a type of fat that protects the heart. Clinical studies showed that foods high in unsaturated fats are better than low-fat foods, because it increases HDL (good cholesterol) and lowers LDL (bad cholesterol).

Sunflower seeds are also the richest source of vitamin E; a quarter cup of sunflower seeds provides 90.5% of the daily requirement of vitamin E. Vitamin E is an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory; reduce symptoms of asthma, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, which is mainly influenced by free radicals and inflammation.

Adequate intake of vitamin E may reduce the risk of developing plaque in blood vessels and colon cancer. Also can reduce the severity and frequency of hot flashes (hot flush) women experienced menopause and diabetes complications. 

Sunflowers seeds also contain many beneficial minerals, such as phosphorus. Minerals calcium and phosphorus are very important role in the formation of bone and teeth, making it useful for preventing osteoporosis. The presence of potassium minerals are very important to balance the sodium. Potassium is hypertensive, which has the effect of blood pressure reduction.

Nutrition is no less important in the sunflower seeds are phytosterols, one of the phytochemicals. If consumed in adequate amounts, shown to lower blood cholesterol levels, heart healthy, improve the immune response and reduce the risk of some cancers. Sunflower seeds are also rich in folate (very good for pregnant women) and various minerals like magnesium, selenium, copper, zinc, calcium, and iron.

Well I really thanks to my neighbor, that gave me a healthy snack on my lonely evening. 

So Happy Today

I made cupcakes and sell it. I think I've mentioned it here before. After five days the selling of my cupcakes was  very disappointing. Sometimes all the cupcakes that i made none of them were sold. I was very sad. I think there must be something wrong with the taste of cupcakes. But everyone that i asked to taste it, they said it good, the taste is good. chocolate cupcakes are probably not too enthused by many people around my neighborhood.
So I decide to spread the cupcakes to another place outside my neighborhood,  I choose a small shop near to the center of this city. I put 10 cupcakes for beginning. 
This morning I went to that small shop, I got mixed feeling, afraid and hope.  I'm so afraid because if none of them were sold, i don't know what to do next, what things i should do for living and making money, because i can't be an employer. So i put my big expectation on this. Well, when i arrived to the shop, the old man who is the shop keeper, say that 9 of them were sold, and it made me feel so very happy. He gave the money and i say thanks to him many time. 
I drove my motorbike, back home, and i almost cry because of compassion. I know this maybe too much or over reacted, but I am so happy today...
