visit a doctor asap. You are clearly not okay

Update; (including Watermelon fruit seed and Avocado seed)
Watermelon Fruit Seed;
Watermelon fruit is sweet but the seed is medicine. Free protein, magnesium and zinc is inside. Don't swallow them whole else your body won't absorb the nutrient. You wash it, sun-dry it then grind and add to your soup or chew as groundnut.

Avocado seed; it is loaded with antioxidants that fights free radicals. Its good for the heart and cholesterol. It boosts digeetion, an immune booster and also has anti-inflammatory properties, it also controls blood sugar spike.

How to use it: Wash the seed , dry in the sun for 2-3 days then grind to fine powder. Boil like 1tsp in water for 10min and drink. Or you can add 1/2tsp powder to your soup. Don't eat it raw, don't take too much. Pregnant women avoid it.

I was expecting to see Avocado seeds in the list. They're very strong antioxidants and reduces blood pressure and blood sugar. Highly recommended for people advancing in age, my dad doesn't joke with it

What about guava and shower chop seeds?
