Pumpkin

It contains calcium, copper, and phosphorus, and is a great source of vitamins. Pumpkins owe their shiny orang color to their high carotenoid content. Carotenoids don’t allow free roots in the body, and help prevent early aging, cardiovascular diseases, and other kinds of infections. Pumpkins are also rich in lutein and zeaxanthin that protect the eyes from free roots and prevent the development of cataract, as well as the degeneration of eye tissue. A cup of pumpkin has 49 calories.
