I think you were misinformed or misunderstood. Holes in the intestine, even very small ones, are extremely dangerous and whether or not you eat seeds has no impact. The leaking of bacteria from the intestine into the abdomen sets up an infection called peritonitis which is often fatal. Small holes sometimes form with ulcerative colitis, but eating seeds or not eating seeds will not make a difference once it has progressed that far.Health Question & Answer
