Pumpkin seeds are the seed, and pumpkin oil is their essence. With the ripening of the pumpkin and the disappearance of the body, the seeds that form the basis for new life remain. Everything that a new life needs is in the seed, that is, in its essence. They are flat, dark green in color, rich in protein and fat. Dried can be a healthy snack. The World Health Organization pointed out pumpkin seeds as a food rich in zinc and selenium, and recommended their daily consumption. The highest concentration of zinc is found in the thin dark green membrane that surrounds it. In addition to zinc, they are rich in amino acids, tryptophan, glutamate, vitamins E and B, copper, manganese, potassium and iron. They have a number of antimicrobial effects, including antifungal and antiviral properties, which are due to the proteins that pumpkin seeds are rich in.
