Hair
Pumpkin seed oil works wonders for hair. It helps strengthen the hair shaft, promotes hair growth, stimulates the hair follicles, and fight dandruff. It’s basically a “wonder oil” for the hair. Take a small amount and put it in your hair as a pre-shampoo to try it out.
Skin
Can we say anti-aging?! The number of antioxidants in this oil along with the other vitamins and minerals works wonders for the skin. If you were ever looking for an alternative to retinol, this may be the solution for you! Use this as an alternative to lotion for a few days, and see how you like it.
Diet
Not only are pumpkin seeds tasty, but they also pack a healthy punch in your diet. Pumpkin seed oil promotes urinary health, heart health, menopause, prostate health, and even mental health. You can take it in capsule form or liquid form.
