Bulk Pumpkin Seeds – 1 lb.
Pumpkin Seeds
Extremely high in protein (averages 29% more than most seeds). High in
EFAs and rich in Vitamin A, Iron, Calcium and B Vitamins. A favorite in
trail mixes, in stir frys, casseroles or stews. May be cooked with grains
and vegetables or used raw as a topping, whole or powdered dry in a blender
if desired.
For a nutritious dressing blend well with water and season to taste (1
part seeds: 1 part water). Mix with other seeds if desired. If possible,
before using let set in a refrigerator at least two hours to help develop
enzymes and destroy the natural enzyme inhibitors.
Pumpkin seeds are commonly used as an effective vermicide (to help rid
the body of “unwelcome guests.”)
