Health Benefits of Pumpkins:

• Pumpkin is one of the very low calorie vegetables and is a storehouse of many anti-oxidant vitamins such as vitamin A, vitamin C and vitamin E. 100 grams of fruit provides just 26 calories and contains no saturated fats or cholesterol and is rich in dietary fibre and minerals.
• This vegetable is one of the food items recommended by dieticians in cholesterol controlling and weight reduction programs.
• Pumpkins are a good source of dietary fibre, folate and potassium.

 Good to Know:

• Kept in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place, it will keep for several weeks. Once cut, it should be kept in an airtight container in the fridge, where it will keep for around a week.
• If you are using pumpkin in a recipe, don’t throw away the seeds – roast them for a delicious and healthy snack.
• Look for the pumpkins with the brightest, strongest coloured flesh, as these are the healthiest for you.
