These crunchy turmeric pumpkin seeds might just be the most healthy snack on Earth! Pumpkin seeds my friends are SO darn healthy. They contain the important minerals, magnesium and manganese, copper, protein and zinc. They also contain plant compounds known as phytosterols and free-radical scavenging antioxidants, which can mitigate cellular damage from aging.
The added benefit of my Turmeric, Coconut & Lime Pumpkin seeds is that they contain turmeric, which is highly anti-inflammatory – a must-have daily supplement for practically everyone.
