Pumpkin rich in vitamins and minerals such as: vitamin A – 47,3%, beta-carotene – 62%, potassium – 13,6%, copper – 12,7%
- Vitamin A is responsible for normal development, reproductive function, skin and eye health, and maintaining immunity.
- B-carotene is provitamin A and has antioxidant properties. 6 mcg of beta-carotene is equivalent to 1 mcg of vitamin A.
- potassium is the main intracellular ion that takes part in the regulation of water, acid and electrolyte balance, participates in the processes of nerve impulses, pressure regulation.
- Copper is a part of enzymes with redox activity and involved in iron metabolism, stimulates the absorption of proteins and carbohydrates. Participates in the processes of providing the tissues of the human body with oxygen. The deficiency is manifested by disorders in the formation of the cardiovascular system and skeleton, the development of connective tissue dysplasia.
