Description

Pumpkin seed protein is a high-quality plant-based, vegan protein powder derived from pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin seed protein is a by-product of the pumpkin oil manufacturing process and is obtained during a cold-processed extraction process of the pumpkin seed oil, collected from the “press cake.” The cake is then collected and milled then ground into pumpkin protein powder.

Just one ounce of pumpkin seeds provides 150 calories, 15g of healthy fats, 2-3g of carbs, and 9-10g of protein, making up nearly 35% of the total nutritional content.

Pumpkin seeds, like Sacha Inchi protein, are one of the best sources of plant-based omega-3 fatty acids, called alpha-linolenic acid or ALA. Studies have shown that ALA has promising anti-inflammatory properties, which contain numerous health benefits for your heart, joints, and brain function. Pumpkin seeds are a great source of Vitamin E, which is rich in antioxidants. Antioxidants help reduce oxidative stress and free-radical damage, improving overall health and wellness.
