About Pumpkin seed

Pumpkin seeds, also known as pepitas, are small, flat, edible seeds sourced from pumpkins or squash, often with a greenish hue. Native to the Americas, they feature prominently in Mexican cuisine and are enjoyed globally as a nutritious snack or ingredient. Packed with protein, healthy fats, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron, they offer a host of health benefits, including improved heart health, immune support, and better digestion. Rich in antioxidants, they may also play a role in reducing inflammation. While they are calorie-dense, eating them in moderation can be part of a balanced diet. Typically consumed roasted, raw, or sprinkled over salads, soups, or baked goods, pumpkin seeds are a versatile and delicious addition to any meal.
