Made from raw pumpkins, the juice contains a variety of vitamins like A, B1, B2, B6, C, D, E and vital flavonoids and poly-phenolic antioxidants like leutin, xanthin and carotenes. With so many nutrients present, pumpkin juice is a superb natural product for good skin and hair. Here are few skin and hair benefits listed below:
Soft healthy & beautiful skin- pumpkin juice is a good source of vitamin C, E, beta carotene and zinc, which helps to keep the skin youthful, smooth and radiant.
Prevents ageing of skin - Highly nutritious pumpkin juice makes an excellent anti - wrinkle and hydrating mask. All you need to do is combine pumpkin juice with honey, yoghurt, lemon juice and vitamin E oil to make a nutritional face mask for all skin types.
Treats hair loss- Vitamin A and potassium rich pumpkin juice is beneficial for your scalp and promotes hair re- growth.
Moisturizes hair- Pumpkin juice effectively moisturizes dry, damaged hair. Blenderize 2 cups of cooked pumpkin, 1 table spoon honey, 1 tablespoon yoghurt and coconut oil together and apply this mixture on your hair, cover it with a plastic cap for 15 minutes and wash thoroughly with a shampoo and conditioner as usual.
Although just a few pieces of pumpkin are enough for great skin and hair, make sure you're not allergic to pumpkin before trying any of these tips.
