Benefits of Pumpkin Seeds
Happy Halloween Everyone!
Pumpkin seeds are a healthy snack that contain phytosterols that help lower LDL cholesterol. They are a natural anti-inflammatory. Pumpkin seeds are healthy for the male prostate. They contain minerals, manganese & phosphorus, and are a healthy snack when you're stressed because they're high in zinc and magnesium (two minerals that become depleted when stress). One half cup of pumpkin seeds provide 92% of your daily value of magnesium!
In addition, pumpkin seeds are a source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Pumpkin seeds contain fatty acids that help get rid of parasites. They’re an excellent source of the amino acid, myosin, an essential component for energy and strong muscular contractions. Enjoy pumpkin seeds by themselves, in salads or homemade granola.
