Key features
- 1000 mg of pumpkin seed oil per softgel
- Cold-pressed with no solvents used
- Made only from non-GMO pumpkin seeds
- Naturally provides essential fatty acids (EFAs) and phytosterols
Pumpkin seed oil is a nutritional oil valued for its natural content of essential fatty acids and plant sterols, known as phytosterols. Essential fatty acids are fats the body cannot make for itself, so they need to come from the diet. Cold pressing extracts the oil mechanically rather than with chemical solvents, keeping processing simple. The softgel format means there is no need to measure or taste the oil itself.
Available in 100 softgels and 200 softgels.
