Pumpkin is a climbing annual in the Cucurbitaceae, or gourd family, which includes squash, cucumber, zucchini and watermelon. While the oversized squash is featured at Halloween and Thanksgiving, the seeds, unfortunately, are often discarded. However, pumpkin seeds are highly nutritious. As a vegan source of complete protein, they provide all nine essential amino acids, as well as antioxidant carotenoids, tocopherols, omega-3 fatty acids and minerals. In addition, pumpkin seed powder is an ingredient in various bath and body care products.
