Pumpkin seed contains an ingredient to help with intestinal worms - not just in people but also your pets. The cucurbitin in the pumkin seed repels the worms. But this isn't the only benefit of pumkin seeds. They are a good source of dietary zinc, with high levels of selenium as well. Selenium is used as an anticancer and antioxident mineral. The sterols in pumkin seeds are also anti-inflammatory. In fact, one study showed that the anti-inflammatory action of pumkin seeds may have led to the improvement of benign enlargement of the prostate gland in men who ingested the herbal pumkin extract. Pumkin seeds are also dieretic and help the bladder - perhaps the reason why it also improved the study subject's urine flow and reduction in frequent urination.
