Notes when eating pumpkin
Pumpkin is warm in nature. People with a hot stomach and stagnant hot air should eat less pumpkin. People with athlete’s foot, jaundice, stagnant air, and dampness should also avoid eating it.
People with infectious diseases and fever should not eat pumpkin to avoid making the disease worse. Pumpkin is stimulating, so you should not eat pumpkin while taking oriental medicine.
If you cut the pumpkin and store it, it will easily spoil from the core and should be eaten as soon as possible.
Pumpkin skin contains a lot of carotene and vitamins, so if possible, you should use pumpkin with the skin in some suitable dishes.
Beta-carotene in pumpkin can be converted into vitamin A in the human body. Eating pumpkin after cooking with oil will help the body absorb this nutrient.
