What is pumpkin seed extract good for?
Improve cardiovascular disease
High plasma cholesterol levels are a major cause of heart disease. Animal fat in the diet can increase the plasma cholesterol content, which is an important factor leading to arteriosclerosis and inducing heart disease. Pumpkin seed protein does not contain cholesterol and can replace animal protein.
According to the research results of the 1998 Nobel Prize winners in medicine, the protein arginine is the only prerequisite for the synthesis of nitric oxide in the body. The content of arginine in pumpkin seed protein powder is sufficient, and the supplement of pumpkin seed protein can promote the synthesis of nitric oxide, dilate blood vessels, reduce blood pressure, improve blood supply to the heart and brain, enhance the elasticity of blood vessel wall, and effectively prevent cardiovascular diseases.
Improve body immunity
Pumpkin seed protein can promote the synthesis of immunoglobulin and enhance humoral immunity effectively. It can also increase T lymphocyte proliferation and enhance cellular immune response. It can also regulate immunity by promoting the release of various endocrine hormones, including insulin, growth hormone, prolactin, antidiuretic hormone, and catecholamines.
Improve male fertility
Pumpkin seed protein can enhance sperm motility, improve sperm quality, promote sperm fertilization ability and provide kinetic energy for sperm movement. Arginine in pumpkin seed protein is not only involved in sperm formation, but also the basic component of various nuclear proteins in sperm, but also through the nitric oxide pathway, the expansion of arteries, and the United States Pfizer has developed a drug called “Viagra” to treat impotence.
Promote muscle synthesis
Pumpkin seed protein is different from ordinary plant protein in that it contains a large amount of glutamate. Glutamine is the first synthetic glutamine in the human body. Experimental studies have proved that glutamine can increase muscle cell volume, stimulate muscle protein synthesis, improve muscle vitality, and make muscle grow. At present, the market uses whey protein as raw material for muscle building powder, but whey protein is animal-derived protein and vegetarians should not eat, and whey protein contains milk allergens, while pumpkin seed protein is plant protein, does not contain any allergens, and allergic people can be safe to eat.
antioxidant
The DPPH clearance rate was 83.47%, so the hydrolyzed pumpkin seed protein had antioxidant effect.
diabetes.
Pumpkin polysaccharide, protein components with molecular weight greater than 60ku and protein components with molecular weight less than 3ku can significantly improve the insulin level of diabetic rats, and the protein components with 3-60ku have the best hypoglycemic effect, which not only can significantly reduce the fasting blood glucose value of diabetic rats, but also can improve the glucose tolerance at various periods.
