the pulp from this low-fat, low-sodium vegetable is an ancient, healthful power food.


One cup of cooked pumpkin has 564 mg of potassium, 2650 IU of vitamin A and just 80 calories.


The orange color isn't just for show-it means the pumpkin is loaded with an important antioxidant: beta carotene.


Adding beta carotene to your diet could reduce your risk of developing certain types of cancer, including prostate, and protect against heart disease. In the past, this staple was used to treat various ailments, including snakebites and…freckles!</P>
