Nutritional value of pumpkins and seeds

Overview

Reports highlight the nutritional significance of pumpkin seeds and specific pumpkin varieties. Pumpkin seeds have been identified as a nutrient-dense superfood, containing high levels of magnesium, manganese, copper, zinc, and protein. In Vietnam, these seeds are a traditional snack often prepared during the Tet holiday.

Further culinary guidance emphasizes the benefits of the Hokkaido pumpkin, noted for its edible skin and nutty flavor. While the pumpkin flesh is low in calories, the seeds are recognized as a calorie-dense source of plant fats, such as linoleic acid, as well as essential minerals like potassium and niacin.
