Modern scientific research demonstrates that pumpkin seeds offer a remarkable nutrient profile that is advantageous to many facets of your health.

They include a wealth of nutrients like protein, unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that lower the risk of developing chronic illnesses including cancer.

A modest dose of pumpkin seeds has high quantities of several critical vitamins and minerals, making them a strong source of numerous nutrients. However, they are also high in calories, so consume them in moderation to maintain a healthy weight.

Flexhealthtips examines a few of the advantages of pumpkin for health.

(1) Anti-Inflammatory Effects

Pumpkin seeds are a great source of antioxidants, which shield our cells from deterioration that could lead to disease and lessen inflammation in our bodies. Additionally, they’re a fantastic source of dietary fiber, which can strengthen this impact.

According to studies, the anti-inflammatory properties of pumpkin seeds can support the maintenance of healthy liver, bladder, intestine, and joint function.

(2) Hypocholesterolemic, cardiovascular protection 

The high concentration of linoleic acid and alpha-linolenic acid, which make up omegas 6 and 3, as well as phytosterols, aid to maintain normal blood lipid levels, lower cholesterol levels, and minimize the risk of developing cardiovascular disease.

(3) Vermifuge, anti-intestinal parasite 

Cucurbitine, an anthelmintic compound, is present in pumpkin seeds. They support the digestive system’s ability to get rid of intestinal worms, tapeworms, and other parasites;

(4) Anti-Cancer Properties

Pumpkin seeds have been shown in lab research to be able to halt the growth of breast and prostate cancer cells. They also cause apoptosis, or the death of cancer cells. The strong antioxidant activity of pumpkin seeds is largely responsible for these effects, although much more research is needed to examine a wider variety of malignancies.

(5) Lower Risk of Diabetes

Magnesium is a mineral that many people don’t get enough of in their diets, but pumpkin seeds are a good source of it. The presence of magnesium lowers your chance of developing diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels. According to studies, pumpkin seeds assist diabetics in managing their condition by helping them maintain blood sugar control.

(6) Laxatives

The seeds’ high fiber content promotes intestinal transit, easing chronic constipation;

(7) Sleep, anxiety, stress and cramps

Magnesium, calcium, and tryptophan all aid in better sleep, the reduction of stress and anxiety, and the relief of cramps. Tryptophan is then converted into serotonin in the body. Iron also helps prevent anemia and weariness;

(8) Improve diet.

Pumpkin seeds are a health bomb in terms of nutrition. Rich in proteins, vital fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins (A, B, E, K, D), minerals (zinc, calcium, iron, magnesium, manganese, copper, etc.), and minerals. They represent a genuine complementary dietary contribution to a diverse diet;

(9) Menopause

When ingested daily, either raw or in oil, pumpkin seeds can help reduce menopausal symptoms like headaches, joint discomfort, hot flashes, and high blood pressure. It would additionally guard against breast cancer (thanks to the presence of phytoestrogens in its composition).

Pumpkin seeds are available in grocery stores both with and without their shells, or you can simply scoop them out of a full pumpkin.

How to use Pumpkin seeds 

  • 10 to 15g per day, the equivalent of about a handful when taken raw.
  • They can be included into cereal, yogurt, granola, or smoothies.
  • Use them to add some extra crunch to a salad, garnish any meal, like soups, chicken dishes, or pastas.
  • They can be blended with other ingredients to make a dip like guacamole, pesto, or hummus.
  • Toasted or roasted with any spice or seasoning, they make a nutritious snack.
  • In oil: 1 tablespoon per day covers the recommended daily intake of Omega 6, contributes to urinary comfort and prevents prostate disorders.
