Answers:
Most people's digestive tracts are hardy, so most should be ok!. As you will have eaten other things and not just the seeds, it is likely that they will not be digested very well because of the hard shell (much like sweetcorn) and just pass straight through!.!.!. the other food eaten will "mix" with the seeds acting as a "cushion"!. Sorry for going into the gross details!. I regularly eat handfuls of pumpkin seeds (as a health food)!.!. so I don't see there being any health problems!. You may get some gas!. The only seeds or fruit stones you should be worried about are apricot ones (they are toxic if consumed in large quantities!.)Www@FoodAQ@Com

You are just asking for diverticulosis attack, thats where seeds can form into a protruding pouch on the intestine, I have had 2 attacks of this and its not good, you get severe pain on the side and can hardly walk, can be very dangerous, I now take a fiber pill daily because of that!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

watermelon is good for constipation but when you eat this dont take any dairy items for one hour before and one hour later ,Www@FoodAQ@Com

i don't know, maybe in certain cases!.!.!. but they can most surely get blocked into your appendix and get appendicitis and need to be operated on!.!.!. same with all seeds from fruits!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I do not think so!. Other factors must be at work in you have blood in your poop!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not bloody (forgive the pun) likely!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
