Nutritional profile of pumpkin seeds**
As one of the most delicious and nutritious seeds available, pumpkin seeds are an excellent source of high-quality protein. When you consume a one-ounce serving (28 g) of raw pumpkin seeds, you can get approximately 7 g of protein, which is slightly more protein than a regular egg. A study from the Agronomy Journal reports that pumpkin seed powder contains at least 18 different amino acids, including arginine, leucine, and tryptophan.
Aside from protein, pumpkin seeds also contain high levels of essential vitamins and minerals, such as dietary fiber, magnesium, calcium, potassium, iron, zinc, omega fatty acids, and vitamins A, B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, C, E, and K.
Moreover, a study published in the journal Food Research International suggested that the many health benefits of pumpkin seeds may be due to their potent antioxidant properties. Some of the powerful antioxidants found in pumpkin seeds include beta-carotene, lutein, quercetin, zeaxanthin, rutin, kaempferol, myricetin, flavonols, phytosterols, carotenoids, and phenolic acids, including caffeic acid, gallic acid, chlorogenic acid, and p-coumaric acid. These antioxidants all play crucial roles in protecting your body against oxidative damage and supporting your overall health.
