Why buy pumpkin seed oil in pharmacies?

Pumpkin seed oil is a nutritious oil containing remarkable quantities of omega-3 and omega-6, fatty acids, vitamins A and C and zinc.

The healing power of pumpkin seed oil was discovered centuries ago in Central America and Mexico. The pulp was commonly used to treat skin irritations, ulcers and tumors. However, the real power lies in the seeds. Pumpkin seeds have amazing nutritional properties and the power to prevent certain diseases. High in vitamins and antioxidants, they are one of the most beneficial superfoods. The dark green color of pumpkin seed oil is a result of the phytochemical compounds present in the oil, which are mainly lutein carotenoids and chlorophyll or porphyrin.

The seeds contain phytosterols that have an action on the prostate. Pumpkin seed oil also contains cucurbitin, which helps fight intestinal parasites (worms). In ancient times, pumpkin seed oil was used as a vermifuge. Finally, it has been suggested that pumpkin seed oil combats hair loss and promotes hair regrowth.

The most important health property of pumpkin seed oil is its action on the prostate. Scientific studies have shown that sterols and carotenoids combat prostate hypertrophy. In plant medicine, pumpkin seed oil is recognized for its beneficial effects on the urinary tract and prostate health, and is often combined with other plants such as sabal or nettle to reinforce its action. What's more, the oil's high unsaturated fatty acid content gives it an anti-inflammatory action to combat prostatitis and urinary tract infections.

Pumpkin seed oil promotes bone calcification. It thus helps prevent decalcification of the teeth, a major cause of tooth decay. Pumpkin seed oil is rich in essential fatty acids, which give skin suppleness and elasticity. It also contains vitamin E, a natural antioxidant. Rich in fatty acids and vitamins, pumpkin seed oil nourishes skin and hair, making them softer and more supple. It also promotes hair regrowth.
