About Pepitas
Pepitas, also known as pumpkin seeds, are nutrient-rich kernels extracted from pumpkins. Widely used in Mexican cuisine and often served roasted or raw, they pack a powerful nutritional punch despite their small size. Pepitas are a great source of healthy fats, protein, and essential minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc, making them a beneficial addition to various diets. They also contain antioxidants, which help combat inflammation and support overall health. Their high fiber content promotes digestive health, while the presence of heart-healthy fats supports cardiovascular wellness. Pepitas are versatile—they can be sprinkled on salads, blended into smoothies, or enjoyed as a quick snack. However, some flavored or roasted varieties may contain added salts or fats, so it's best to opt for unsalted, natural versions to maximize their health benefits. Whether eaten on their own or incorporated into recipes, pepitas are a tasty way to boost your nutrient intake.
