some of which include a good source of protein, phytosterols, fiber, iron,
copper, magnesium, manganese, calcium, potassium, zinc, phosphorous, selenium,
folate, niacin, and other vitamins and amino acids such as tryptophan, arginine
and glutamic acid. One gram of pumpkin seed protein contains as much tryptophan
as a full glass of milk. The seeds are said to lower cholesterol. The seeds
contain linolenic acid, a nutrient believed to help prevent hardening of the

small handful of seeds once or twice a day--can calm the irritated and
overactive bladder occasionally associated with bedwetting.
