Pumpkin seeds, also known as pepitas, are the edible seeds of the winter squash (Cucurbita moschata D.), a variety of pumpkin. These popular green seeds are flat and oval, with a white outer hull, which is often removed before consumption.
These nutrient-dense seeds are an excellent source of magnesium, iron, potassium, phosphorus and copper, and a good source of calcium, selenium, zinc, vitamin K, riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and folate (vitamin B9). They contain antioxidant phytonutrients like phytosterols, squalene (a compound similar to beta-carotene), tocopherols (vitamin E) and carotenoids. Pumpkin seeds are a rich source of healthful fatty acids like linoleic acid and oleic acid, a good source of fiber, and a moderate source of protein.
