NUTRITIONAL BENEFITS

• Pumpkin-Calabaza are an exceptional source of healthy energy; they are naturally fat-free and cholesterol-free, while also being very low in sodium.

• They are a top-tier natural source of Beta-carotene (Vitamin A), which is essential for eye health and a strong immune system.

• They provide potassium, dietary fiber, and Vitamin C—all of which support heart health, blood pressure regulation, and optimal digestion.

Selection & Storage Advice

• Selection: Choose pumpkins that feel heavy for their size, with a firm, thick rind free of deep cuts or soft spots. The flesh should have a vibrant, uniform orange color.

• Storage: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Once cut, the pumpkin should be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated to maintain its freshness.
