About Tbsp pumpkins seeds

Pumpkin seeds, often known as "pepitas," are nutrient-rich seeds harvested from pumpkins. A single tablespoon of pumpkin seeds offers a concentrated source of essential nutrients, including magnesium, zinc, iron, and protein, along with healthy fats such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Originating from the Americas, pumpkin seeds are often used in traditional Mesoamerican cuisine but have gained global popularity as a versatile ingredient, adding crunch and nutrition to salads, baked goods, trail mixes, and smoothies. These seeds are celebrated for their health benefits, including supporting heart health, boosting immunity, and promoting healthy digestion due to their fiber content. While they are a nutrient-packed snack, it's important to consume them in moderation, as they are calorie-dense. Salted or flavored varieties may also contain added sodium, which should be considered when selecting packaged products. Pumpkin seeds are an excellent choice for anyone seeking a healthy and satisfying snack or ingredient.
