Loaded with vitamins and antioxidants, they are among the world’s most beneficial superfoods. These seeds are an excellent source of many important nutrients for our bodies which are in short supply in the average western diet.
For thousands of years, pumpkin seeds and pumpkin seed oil have been used as a natural remedy for irritation of the bladder and kidneys as well as for prostate irregularities. Pumpkin seeds have made the news headlines in recent years for their preventative power in relation to prostate conditions and prostate health.

Studies done on Styrian Pumpkin Seeds (Cucurbita pepo var.styriaca also known as var. oleifera) and Styrian Pumpkin Seed Oil show that prostate enlargement may be slowed, stopped and even reversed.

Also there has never been any indication that eating pumpkin seeds or pumpkin seed oil, even in higher doses, has any negative side effects. Neither does it produce any complications when taken in combination with other foods or medicine.
