You can do a lot more with pumpkin than making a jack-o'-lantern... and we all should.
Including pumpkin in your diet has so many benefits. It helps improve your vision, lowers cancer risk, can give you an immunity boost (great time as cold season comes) and it actually helps you feel fuller longer.
Rich in potassium, pumpkins are a heart healthy food because they help regulate your blood pressure, lowering risk for heart attack and stroke. There's also a good dose of vitamin C, fiber and antioxidants all good for the heart.
