Overview

Pumpkin contains polysaccharides, amino acids, active protein carotenoids and a variety of trace elements. Regular consumption is beneficial to health. Pumpkin contains vitamins and pectin. Pectin has good adsorption properties and can bind and eliminate bacterial toxins and other harmful substances in the body, such as lead, mercury and radioactive elements in heavy metals, and can play a detoxifying effect. The pectin contained in pumpkin can also protect the gastric mucosa from being irritated by rough food and promote ulcer healing, making it suitable for people with stomach problems. The ingredients contained in pumpkin can promote bile secretion, strengthen gastrointestinal motility, and help food digestion. Pumpkin is rich in cobalt. Cobalt can activate the body's metabolism, promote hematopoietic function, and participate in the synthesis of vitamin B12 in the body. It is a necessary trace element for human pancreatic islet cells and has special effects on preventing and treating diabetes and lowering blood sugar. Pumpkin is rich in zinc, which is good for skin and nail health. The antioxidant beta carotene has eye protection, heart protection and anti-cancer effects. Plus, pumpkin seeds are an excellent food source of important brain-healthy omega-6 fatty acids. Pumpkin season is here again, so it’s time to make delicious and healthy pumpkin puff pastry!
