leading up to when I went into remission from that diet I sometimes ate the seeds throughout the day but most of the time I ate the seeds and spinach after work in the evenings because that was most convenient for me. I also ate oatmeal (with 2%milk) every morning (and still do) and oatmeal contains a fair amount of the same nutrients that sunflower seeds contain so that probably helped get some of the needed nutrients throughout the day.
I think its good to eat a lot of spinach for the first few weeks but once you start seeing good results a full can a day is not needed and later you can experiment and reduce the amount and find what the optimal amount of spinach intake works best for you. I also ate 4 to 7 handfuls of sunflowerseeds a day while flaring leading up to remission.
