Health Benefits:

Shelled pumpkin seeds are a true treasure trove of nutrients, making them an excellent choice for anyone looking to take care of their health in a natural way.

Magnesium – for the Heart and Nerves
The seeds are an excellent source of magnesium – a mineral responsible for over 300 enzymatic processes in the body. It helps support normal heart function, regulate blood pressure, improve sleep quality, and has a positive effect on the nervous system.

Zinc – Immune System Shield
Zinc is essential for immune defense, as well as for skin, hair, and nail health. It supports tissue regeneration and plays a role in hormonal balance – especially important for male health.

Iron – Energy and Vitality
Pumpkin seeds contain iron in a highly bioavailable form, making them ideal for those with low hemoglobin levels, vegetarians, and women of reproductive age.

High in Plant-Based Protein
With over 30% protein content, the seeds are an excellent source of protein, especially for those avoiding animal products. They help maintain muscle tone, promote satiety, and are perfect for an active lifestyle.

Unsaturated Fatty Acids – Heart Support
Rich in healthy fats (omega-6 and omega-9), the seeds support cardiovascular health, lower "bad" cholesterol, and raise "good" cholesterol levels.

Fiber – for Good Digestion
While shelled pumpkin seeds have slightly less fiber than their unshelled counterparts, they still contribute to good digestion and provide a feeling of fullness. They make for a light and balanced snack.

Antioxidants – Protection Against Free Radicals
They contain antioxidants like vitamin E and phenolic compounds that protect cells from oxidative stress, slow down aging, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

Tryptophan – for Better Sleep and Mood
The seeds contain the amino acid tryptophan, which is involved in the production of serotonin and melatonin – the "feel-good" and sleep hormones. This makes pumpkin seeds a natural helper against stress and insomnia.
