Interesting and useful PUMPKIN properties.
The word ""pumpkin"" has two main versions of origin. According to the first version, “pumpkin” is a derivative of the common Slavic word “tyky” (“tuk”). According to another version, the word was borrowed from the Pelagian-Franco language, going back to the Indo-European ""kūkū"", which translates as ""plump fruit"".
Pumpkin and pumpkin seeds are often mentioned in the set of therapeutic tools of urologists, s*xologists and andrologists. First of all, this is due to the high zinc content in pumpkin seeds - on average about 8-10 mg / 100 g. More precisely, 30 g of pumpkin seeds, cleared of the pericarp (about 140-150 pieces) can be contained in 15 g up to 70-80% of the daily needs of the male body.
Due to this, pumpkin seeds at the same time affect several body systems:
* participate in the synthesis of male s*x hormones;
* activate spermatogenesis and promote seminal fluidpro duction (in men over 44 years old);
* normalize the prostate glandfunction;
* improve the cardiovascular system condition.
