DESCRIPTION
Pumpkin Seed Organic Carrier Oil is valued for its exquisite nutrient profile as well as its compatibility with essential oils and active ingredients. The pumpkin, part of the melon family known scientifically as Cucurbita pepo, holds historical significance across various cultures. Globally, countries like the United States, Canada, Mexico, and China are major producers of pumpkins for both agricultural and commercial purposes.
Rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, B2, C, and E, iron, copper, manganese, and fiber, pumpkins have been a staple in diets for centuries. The seeds, or pepitas, are flat and oval, sought after for their nutrient-packed profile. Cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil is extracted from these nutrient-dense seeds. With over 60% unsaturated fatty acids, including omega-3 and omega-6, Pumpkin Seed Carrier Oil has been valued for generations and continues to be a staple in cosmetic and personal care formulations today.
