Pumpkin

Pumpkin is a type of winter squash that belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. It’s native to North America and particularly popular around Thanksgiving and Halloween. It is quite nourishing as well.

7 grams of fiber, 45% of the daily value of magnesium, 10% of the daily value of potassium, 10% of the daily value of vitamin C, and a whopping 208% of the daily value of vitamin A are all present in one cup (245 grams) of canned pumpkin. By keeping food moving through your digestive system, fiber may help avoid constipation and help you feel fuller, which may help you lose weight. For the best eye health, vitamin A is required. In addition to its obvious uses in baked goods like pumpkin pie and bread, canned pumpkin is a delicious addition to soups, smoothies, mousse, pudding, and pasta dishes.
