Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil 500 ml - ViVio

Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil is one of the most valuable vegetable oils. It is characterized by a dark green and even brown color and a unique, slightly nutty flavor and aroma. Although it has been popular on the Polish food market for a relatively short time, pumpkin seed oil has been pressed as early as the 17th century. This product comes from the historic region of Styria, which occupied the territory of present-day Austria and Slovenia.
Pumpkin seed oil is not only a tasty addition to many dishes, but above all a real treasure trove of nutrients, vitamins and minerals that are valuable for health. At this point, however, it is worth mentioning the significant content of unsaturated fatty acids (among which oleic and linoleic acid are distinguished) and tocopherols and phytosterols necessary for the proper functioning of our circulatory system. It is also worth knowing that despite the fact that this oil is a valuable source of fatty acids, it is characterized by their unfavorable ratio. This means that pumpkin seed oil contains a large amount of omega-6 fatty acids and a small amount of omega-3 fatty acids. Therefore, when introducing this product into your diet, do not forget to ensure a sufficient intake of food products rich in unsaturated fatty acids of the omega-3 group ( including sea fish and seafood) . Interestingly, pumpkin seed oil is also characterized by a high concentration of vitamins in its composition. This product is an excellent source of B vitamins and vitamins A, C, D, and E. The minerals contained in this oil are also important for our health. Research shows that it is able to provide our body with zinc, selenium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and sodium.
Pumpkin seed oil has been widely used for many years, not only in our cuisine but also in natural medicine. It is also a common ingredient in cosmetic treatments aimed at improving the condition of hair and skin.
