PUMPKIN SEEDS

ORIGIN
- Pumpkin is a squash fruit, related to the courgette (zucchini) family and often referred to as a vegetable. Pumpkins vary greatly in colour and form, sometimes nearly globular, sometimes more oblong in shape.
- Areas where pumpkins are cultivated include North America, Europe, Australia and India. Sometimes they grow to huge proportions and the largest on record weighed 666kgs.
NUTRITION
- The seeds of this wonderful fruit are an excellent source of iron, zinc, protein and phosphorous as well as containing essential fatty acids, potassium and magnesium. It is also thought that they may promote prostate health as their components appear to interrupt the triggering of prostate cell multiplication by testosterone.
