How do you think Native Americans had that long, strong hair? The answer is pumpkin seeds!! Pumpkin seeds was a part of their traditional diet, that's why their hair was so long and strong. Pumpkin seeds are an excellent source of zinc, sulfur, vitamin A, C, E, K, protein, iron, and a couple other vitamins and minerals. Sulfur is a mineral part of amino acids that protein synthesis depends on, vitamin C is needed by your body to produce sebum. Sebum is the oily substance secreted by your hair follicles, it's our natural conditioner. Pumpkin seeds also contain biotin, so it's good for skin and hair. The high zinc content helps ward off acne and other skin problems. I purchase organic austrian pumpkin seeds from whole foods. So next time you get a chance pick yourself up some organic pumpkin seeds. It aids in strong and healthy hair growth:) Do you eat pumpkin seeds? Are you going to include them in your diet?
