Show Notes

In Episode 79, I continue with the Halloween/October themes and dive into the clinical research on pumpkin fruit, pumpkin seeds, and pumpkin seed oil. Pumpkins offer many nutrients like vitamin A, beta-carotene, iron, magnesium, manganese, and potassium. But interestingly, the pumpkin seeds are very rich in terpenes, phytosterols, and lignans. It is these less recognized components that seem to offer some potential benefit for our health. Tune in for all the details!
