Pumpkin Extract

Pumpkin extract is derived from the seeds and flesh of the pumpkin plant. It is rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, making it a popular ingredient in various skincare and health products. Pumpkin seed oil, for example, is known for its anti-inflammatory properties and is often used as a carrier oil for essential oils. The extract is also a natural source of beta-carotene, which is converted to Vitamin A in the body. This vitamin is essential for healthy skin, eyes, and immune system. Pumpkin extract also contains high amounts of zinc, magnesium, and potassium, which are important for maintaining healthy skin and hair. The extract is commonly used in skincare products such as face masks, scrubs, and moisturizers to help improve the appearance of aging skin, hydrate dry skin, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It is also found in supplements and food products such as pumpkin seed oil capsules and pumpkin-flavored snacks. Overall, pumpkin extract is a versatile ingredient that provides a range of benefits for skin, hair, and overall health.

Referral Studies

One study, published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology in 2011, found that pumpkin seed oil was effective in improving symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), a condition that affects the prostate gland in men. The study found that pumpkin seed oil improved urinary flow and reduced the number of night time urination episodes.

Another study, published in the Journal of Medicinal Food in 2010, found that pumpkin seed oil had anti-inflammatory properties and could be useful in treating osteoarthritis. The study found that pumpkin seed oil reduced inflammation and improved joint mobility in rats with osteoarthritis.

A study published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics in 2013 found that pumpkin puree is an excellent source of potassium and magnesium, these minerals are essential for maintaining healthy blood pressure levels.

A study published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition in 2016 found that pumpkin seed protein supplementation can improve muscle mass and strength in older adults.

Overall, these studies suggest that pumpkin extract, particularly in the form of pumpkin seed oil and pumpkin puree, may have potential health benefits for treating BPH, osteoarthritis, and as a source of potassium and magnesium. Additionally, it may have benefits for older adults in terms of muscle mass and strength. It is important to note that more research is needed to confirm these findings and to determine the optimal dosage and use of pumpkin extract for these conditions.
