Pumpkin seeds are nutritional powerhouses because they are an excellent source of protein, healthy fat and beneficial fibers. These wonder seeds can be used as nutritional snacks for both men and women. They are ideal snacks because they fill your stomach for a longer duration. They suppress hunger pangs as every 100 grams provides about 560 calories and almost 50% of daily protein requirement. These seeds are the source of valuable nutrients like zinc, magnesium, manganese, copper, antioxidants, and phytosterols.

I consume around 1.5 kg /month and generally buy from local mrkt or online. Due to covid local mkt was closed and other big online sites were not supplying. Then I tried Attar .
