Organic Pumpkin Protein Powder

Organic pumpkin protein powder is made from dried, ground pumpkin seeds. The seeds are typically hulled and then milled into a fine powder. It is a plant-based protein source that retains some of the nutrients found in pumpkin seeds.

Manufacturers add it as a source of plant-based protein and fiber. It can also contribute a mild, earthy flavor and a slightly thicker texture. It is commonly found in protein powders, smoothies, baked goods, and some snack bars.

Organic pumpkin protein powder is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. It is a source of protein and contains beneficial nutrients like magnesium and zinc. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated similar food ingredients. Evidence does not suggest adverse effects from typical consumption levels.
