Pumpkin seeds are not only delicious but also provide many health benefits. Here are ten:
Prostate Protection
They promote overall prostate health and alleviate the difficult urination associated with an enlarged prostate.
Improved Bladder Function
In some studies, pumpkin seed extracts improved bladder function in animals.
Depression Treatment
They contain L-tryptophan, a compound naturally effective against depression.
Prevention of Osteoporosis
Because they are high in zinc, pumpkin seeds are a natural protector against osteoporosis. Low intake of zinc is linked to higher rates of osteoporosis.
Natural Anti-Inflammatory
Pumpkin seeds effectively reduce inflammation without the side effects of anti-inflammatory drugs.
Prevention of Kidney Stones
They prevent calcium oxalate kidney stone formation, according to studies.
Treatment of Parasites They are used in many cultures as a natural treatment for tapeworms and other parasites. Studies also show them to be effective against acute schistosomiasis, a parasite contracted from snails.
Great Source of Magnesium
1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds contains 92% of your daily value of magnesium, a mineral in which most Americans are deficient.
Lower Cholesterol
Pumpkin seeds contain phytosterols, compounds that that have been shown to reduce levels of LDL cholesterol.
Cancer Prevention
The same phytosterols that lower cholesterol also protect against many cancers.

Does seed helps you to cure impotent, the answer is NO!
You need to eat high cholesterol food live pig liver and sotong in order for your body to produce testosterone, the lack of it will make you impotent. Trust me, a lot of my friends who are in the 50s -60s after following my dieting plan can satisfy women(can go geylang if wife too ugly) at least 2 times per week!!

上海“绿化人”催生屋顶菜园
全球花木网6月28日资讯：
中国“十二五”计划，在推广屋顶绿化方面，要做到150万平方米的立体绿化，其中50万平方米是垂直绿化，100万平方米是屋顶绿化，如果积极推广屋顶菜园等绿化工程，不仅是促进绿化与环保，也促进了屋顶经济。
中国食品安全问题频频发生和环境污染，逼使上海消费者更为重视有机农产品，更催生了阳台、屋顶经济，为园林设计，绿化环境的业者，创造了另类商机。
目前上海有9000万平方米可利用、但却空置着的平屋顶。一批从事绿化、景观设计的专业人员，看到了“改变这个城市”的商机，去年7月份正式启动了屋顶菜园项目，并获得了官方的认同。
能够降低碳排放
上海围围农业发展副总经理黄柯说，中国“十二五”计划，在推广屋顶绿化方面，要做到150万平方米的立体绿化，其中50万平方米是垂直绿化，100万平方米是屋顶绿化，如果积极推广屋顶菜园等绿化工程，不仅是促进绿化与环保，也促进了屋顶经济。
她的合作伙伴，东方园林设计集团副总裁朱胜萱还说，上海市政府在世博前为美化上海市容，提升形象而启动的平改坡，不就是觉得屋顶难看，就是觉得能够降低碳排放。
黄柯和另外三位志同道合的同事，成立了上海围围农业发展，英文名称是充分反映绿色生活愿景的V-LIFE，至于合作伙伴朱胜萱是荷兰尼塔设计集团中国总部创始人，目前所属的北京东方园林股份是一家民营上市公司，集团旗下有东方园林设计集团及东联设计集团等。
在上海世博会期间很多展馆的屋顶绿化，以及世博园区内的后滩湿地景观设计，他们这几位专业人士都参与了。
他们又为何会想到在屋顶种菜呢？黄柯说，东联设计旗下有个孵化中心，专门做城市景观创新，也就是中国说的绿化。利用屋顶种蔬菜就是中心的绿色创意之一。而启动这一项目的种子基金，就是团队赢得了英国领事馆文教处举办的青年创意大赛所获得的一笔3万元奖金（人民币，下同，约6000新元）。
