With Halloween just around the corner, many people will soon be heading out to the shops to purchase one key staple... a pumpkin. While pumpkins are often used to create fun decorations or seasonal soups, there's one part of the pumpkin that is often overlooked and discarded: the seeds.
Kyle Crowley, Nutrition Expert at Protein Works shares insight into the lesser-known nutritional benefits of pumpkin seeds and why they should become part of your diet during this time of year. "As a nutrition expert, I've researched a wide range of food benefits, from popular trends like raw-dogging meals to cucumber salad. Yet, it's often the lesser-known ingredients that excite me most, and pumpkin seeds are a perfect example. Instead of throwing them away, we should be taking advantage of the many health benefits they yield.""With temperatures plummeting in the winter months, many of us become more vulnerable to seasonal illnesses such as Colds and Flu.
"For those who may be curious to grow pumpkins for the seeds next year, the best time to sow the pumpkin seeds is around April/May time."
