Welcome
at the Pumpkin Seed Oil information
website.
What
is pumpkin seed oil?
Styrian pumpkin fields bring around 500 kgs
of dried pumpkin seeds per hectare. And for
1 litres oil you need around 2.5 kgs of dried
pumpkin seeds. From these seeds without any
shell, which are a natural food and which are
processed to a dark green oil, which looks a
litte bit red, when the light is shining through.
The pressing is
done an old way since more than 100 years after
a soft roasting. Pumpkin seed oil is a natural
product with a fresh and typical taste and colour.
With wrong storage it can get rancid, so always
a cool and dark storage is necessary, when the
bottle is opened once. Learn at the following
pages how Austrian people use the oil and which
way they consume the healthness every day. We
produce not only pumpkin seed oil, we make also
a specific pumpkin seed mustard.
Why is pumpkin seed oil healthy?
There is a lot of information about the many
nutrients, including:
Vit. A, Vit. E, Zinc and the precious omegas:
Omega 3 and Omega 6: also known as essential
fatty acids (EFAs) you will find at the ready
oil. The pumpkin seed and the oil have been
the subject of a number of studies to identify
their health-promoting potential. Preliminary
studies have shown that pumpkin seeds may reduce
hormonal damage to prostate cells, thus possibly
reducing the risk of developing prostate cancer.
Pumpkin seeds have been used to treat urinary
tract infections.

How to buy good pumpkin seed oil?
The most necessary part to order the healthy
oil is to see how the company works. A lot of
oil is not only pumpkin seed oil. Some companies
add sunflower or other cheap oils into the pumpkin
seed oil to make it cheaper. 100 % natural pumpkin
seed oil has a higher price and it tastes more
intensive. You should look after small farmers
and people who work together with small farmers.
We produce the seed by us and process them at
a small mill. While the processing we wait there,
to be sure, to get our oil from our seed and
that you can trust the perfect the quality of
our oil. We will show you around our family
business if you will come to us. If the way
is too long to order at our farm shop, we would
be happy if you order
some oil for your healthness at our online
shop. Don`t be afraid to come at a vinegar
shop, this is the main work of our business.
100 % quality is not cheap, but you will like
it, when you taste it the first time.... and
you will not want to do without it anymore.
