Improved Prostate Health and Protection Against Certain Cancers?

It has been approved by many studies that pumpkin seeds help fight against prostate enlargement. Highly nutritious pumpkin seeds improve prostate health and provide protection against prostate cancer. The reasons are;

  • As prostate health is determined by zinc levels, eating 2-3 handfuls of pumpkin seeds per week may reduce the risk of prostate cancer, since pumpkin seeds are also rich in zinc.
  • The phytosterol in pumpkin seeds reduces prostate enlargement, thus preventing BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia) and reducing its symptoms.
  • Pumpkin seeds change the hormone balance, preventing over-stimulated prostate cells from growing and proliferating.

Is it True That Pumpkin Seeds Lower Your Cholesterol Level?

The majority of the oils in pumpkin seeds are polyunsaturated fatty acids, which include omega-3 fatty acids and omega-6 fatty acids. Several studies have shown that these fatty acids improve HDL cholesterol, that is, good cholesterol, and the ratio of LDL cholesterol, that is, bad cholesterol. In addition, pumpkin seeds help prevent cardiovascular disease (diseases that affect the circulatory system).
