About Squash seeds

Squash seeds are nutrient-packed powerhouses originating from the squash plant, cultivated in regions of the Americas for centuries. Rich in protein, healthy fats, fiber, and essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, and iron, these seeds are a versatile addition to various cuisines, often roasted as a snack or used to enhance dishes. They are celebrated for their high antioxidant content, helping combat inflammation and support overall health. Squash seeds also contain plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, beneficial for heart health. While they provide impressive nutritional benefits, moderation is key due to their calorie density, particularly when prepared with added salt or oils. Easy to incorporate into salads, trail mixes, or savory dishes, squash seeds offer a satisfying crunch and a boost of essential nutrients to your diet.
