Pumpkin Seeds

Pumpkin seeds are a rich source of lean protein, iron, magnesium and zinc. Iron is an essential mineral needed in oxygen transport by red blood cells. Magnesium plays an important role in the biochemical reactions that help keep bones strong and promote a healthy nervous system and normal heart function. Lightly roasted or raw, pumpkin seeds are a super snack or a healthy addition to salads, homemade trail mix or muffin recipe.
