Nutritional Value of Lightly Sea Salted Dry Roasted Pumpkin Seed Kernels
One of the best, most alkaline sources of nutrition you can eat. Pumpkin seeds are incredibly high in iron and magnesium, and contain a larger amount of protein than chia or flax per ounce, boasting a total of 5 grams per ounce. They’re also rich in B vitamins and are the only seed to actually have an alkalizing effect on the body, though many others are considered alkaline in nature. This means pumpkin seeds help counteract acidity and at the same time, provide the support your body needs to feel its best. They even contain high amounts of anxiety-relieving trytophan, an essential amino acid, which helps improve serotonin levels.
INSOMNIA?
Pumpkin Seeds are loaded with the amino acid tryptophan, which aids in the production of serotonin in the brain. A balance of the neurotransmitter serotonin is responsible for regulating mood, sleep, and appetite.
LOWERS CHOLESTEROL
Pumpkin Seeds have a high content of phytosterols, plant-based compounds that can reduce LDL “bad” cholesterol levels. Pumpkin seeds and other foods are naturally rich in phytosterols.
PROSTATE HEALTH
Pumpkin Seeds contains zinc and other antioxidants to reduce the risk of prostate disease.
STORAGE OF GERBS
We strongly recommend storing in an airtight (dark colored/opaque) container in a cool, dark environment like a pantry or kitchen cabinet, away from direct exposure to sunlight or excessive heat like an oven. The amount of times you open the container and let in the harmful effects of oxygen will only increase the likelihood of rancidity; thus we encourage you to not empty more than 1 pound of product at a time. YOU CAN FREEZE IT TOO!

Delicious seeds My whole family loves these pumpkin seeds! They're much crunchier than the seeds that you find at the grocery store and it's good to know that we don't have to worry about cross contact with other allergens. Thank you Gerbs!

Great quality and glad to have an allergen safe pumpkin seed. They are a bit more salty than expected but are still very tasty and I would order again.

A great find! Finding Gerbs has been a lifesaver for my family. We all have severe nut allergies and I feel so much better know that their products are nut-free. My kids ask for them constantly and I use them in homemade trail mix and granola.

So good! I am so happy to have access to Gerbs. I thought I was going to have to give up seeds all together, since everyone else seems to process them in nut-ridden facilities. Not only do I get to enjoy seeds again, but these are delicious!
