Ambrosia Organic Pumpkin Seeds – 200gm (pack of 1)

Description

Pumpkin Seeds are a rich source of zinc (one ounce contains more than 2 mg of this beneficial mineral). Zinc is important for your body in many ways, including immunity, cell growth, and division, sleep, mood, your senses of taste and smell, eye and skin health, and insulin regulation.

Many are deficient in zinc due to mineral-depleted soils, drug effects, plant-based diets, and other diets in high in grain. This deficiency is associated with increased colds and flu, chronic fatigue, depression, acne, low birth weight babies, learning problems, and poor school performance in children, among others.

Raw nuts and seeds, including pumpkin seeds, are one of the best sources of plant-based omega-3s.

Pumpkin seeds have long been valued as an important natural food for men’s health. This is in part because of their high zinc content, which is important for prostate health (where it is found in the highest concentrations in the body), and also because pumpkin seed extracts and oils may play a role in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH, or enlarged prostate). Research suggests that both pumpkin seed oil and pumpkin seeds may be particularly beneficial in supporting prostate health.
