Pumpkin seed oil is made from hulless pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo) with a dark reddish-green color and somewhat nutty flavor. It’s rich, versatile and nutritious — making it a top choice for many personal care, dietary supplement, functional food and animal nutrition product formulations.
At Botanic Innovations, we extract pumpkin seed oil (and many others) using the NatureFRESH Cold Press process which results in oil that’s extra-virgin, ultra-pure and packed full of antioxidants.
Nutritional Health Benefits of Pumpkin Seed Oil
The best pumpkin seed oil to use is always going to be 100% natural, non-GMO and certified organic under the U.S. National Organic Program. That way you can ensure that the promised health benefits actually meet your — and your customers’ — expectations.
Due to its robust and varied nutritional profile, pumpkin seed oil can be used in a wide variety of product formulations. It contains:
- Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids. These essential fatty acids contribute to brain function, support heart health by helping regulate both blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reduce inflammation and promote healthy skin and hair.
- Vitamin E. A powerful antioxidant that neutralizes harmful free radicals that can damage cellular components.
- Vitamin K. Helps blood clotting by activating proteins that regulate coagulation and supports bone health by aiding in calcium regulation, ensuring proper bone mineralization.
- Magnesium. A vital mineral that supports muscle and nerve function, helps regulate blood sugar levels, supports immunity and contributes to bone health.
- Zinc. Another vital mineral that supports immune function, aids in wound healing, contributes to DNA synthesis and promotes healthy growth.
- Iron. As one of the minerals that makes up pumpkin seed oil, it benefits the body by supporting necessary oxygen transport and energy production.
