It's actually not that overly healthy for hedgies. From Reaper's list here: http://www.hedgehogcentral.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=45 it's #2. It's ok to feed as a "junk" food, just don't rely on it to become his "main" food.
And before you get confused about junk foods....Here is a thread that would be a good read ^_^

What other food are you feeding? You'll most likely find that your boy will only eat the sunseed here and there, but will continue to eat the kibbles that you normally feed him.
The only other way I can think to try to get around that, is to mix the sunseed directly in the storage container of one of his more preferred kibbles, and let the smell of his favourite kibble dilute into the sunseed. (I would only try this in a very small amount basis, because the reverse might also happen, thus making your boy not want the kibble)
