Squash! Butternut, Pumpkin, to Zucchini!

avatar

Cookbook by

~Rita~

Butternut, Pumpkin, to Zucchini! If suffering from dysentery, eczema, and edema you can benefit from eating pumpkin. It helps regulate blood sugar balance and benefits the pancreas (great for those with diabetes and hypoglycemia.) Bronchial asthma and cough are also improved due to pumpkin's ability to promote the discharge of mucus from the lungs, bronchi, and throat. Ahh Pumpkin or Butternut soup! Try applying the fresh pulp to burns, said to cool and relieve pain. Pumpkin, and especially pumpkin seeds, destroy intestinal worms, too. So don`t throw them away check out my recipe for roasting them.
