Cucurbita pepo
The seeds of the pumpkin are rich in zinc, magnesium, and phytosterols; clinically shown to improve urinary symptoms of BPH and reduce prostate size.
Pumpkin seed (Cucurbita pepo) is a nutrient-dense seed rich in zinc, magnesium, and phytosterols, particularly delta-7-sterols. It is clinically used to improve urinary symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and has traditional use as an antiparasitic agent. Its primary active compounds include phytosterols, zinc, and magnesium, which contribute to its therapeutic effects.
The phytosterols in pumpkin seed, especially delta-7-sterols, inhibit 5α-reductase and compete with dihydrotestosterone (DHT) for androgen receptors, reducing prostate cell proliferation. Zinc supports prostate health by modulating hormone metabolism and exerting anti-inflammatory effects. Magnesium relaxes smooth muscle in the bladder and urethra, improving urinary flow. Additionally, the seeds' antiparasitic action is attributed to cucurbitacin compounds that paralyze intestinal worms, facilitating their expulsion.
