About Pumkin

Pumpkin, a vibrant orange squash native to North America, is celebrated for its versatility in both savory and sweet dishes. Rich in vitamins A, C, and E, along with fiber, potassium, and antioxidants, pumpkin supports eye health, boosts immunity, and aids digestion. Its low calorie and fat content make it a nutritious addition to soups, pies, and curries across global cuisines, particularly in American, Indian, and Mexican recipes. Pumpkin seeds, also known as pepitas, are packed with magnesium, zinc, and healthy fats, promoting heart health and providing a nutrient-dense snack. While fresh pumpkin is highly nutritious, processed options like canned pumpkin or pumpkin-flavored treats may contain added sugars and reduced nutrients, so consumption should be mindful. Whether roasted, pureed, or baked, this versatile squash combines delicious flavor with numerous health benefits, earning its place as a seasonal favorite and year-round superfood.
