Pumpkins are now in the shops but there can be used for so much more than a Halloween lantern which will just end up in the bin. October is the month of pumpkin recipes here on A Year of Vegan Eats so come back every week for new recipes to make the most out of your pumpkin.

Smokey roast pumpkin seeds.

I was never a fan of eating them with the shell on but once you simmer them for 10 minutes they become a lot easier to eat and digest. They also rock as a crunch topping.

Ingredients –
Seeds from 1 pumpkin
1 tbsp of oil
Chilli flakes to taste
½ tsp of liquid smoke
1 tbsp of garlic powder
2 tsp of paprika
Pinch of salt
2 tbsp of nooch

Method –
1. Clean your pumpkin seeds to get as much pumpkin off them as possible.
2. Fill a pan with boiling water and generously salt. Add in your washed seeds and simmer for 10 minutes. While this happens pre heat your oven to 200C.
3. Drain your seeds then in the dry pan add your remaining ingredients to make your marinade. Add in the seeds and mix well so they are evenly coated.
4. Pour the seeds onto a baking sheet and spread flat. Bake for 20 minutes until they are dry and toasted. Leave to cool completely and store in an airtight container.

Hi, This is Anne Goswami from India Herbs. This is a Distributor training video for our Therapeutic Products.

India Herbs offers therapeutic supplements for Blood Sugar, Cardiovascular Health, and Joint Care.

AyurGold helps control blood sugar levels by supporting pancreas, liver, and kidney functions. A primary ingredient in AyurGold is Bitter Melon extract. Bitter Melon has been proven to lower blood sugar levels by increasing glucose absorption. Improved Blood Sugar levels are noticeable after a month of taking AyurGold.

Cardiofy promotes cardiovascular health by supporting heart function, promoting circulation, and normalizing blood chemistry. Cardiofy supplies potent cardio-protective nutrients through extracts of proven herbs like Garlic, Onion, and Ginger. While customers have reported less chest pains and better circulation after starting with Cardiofy, cardiovascular health numbers tend to improve after 2 months of taking Cardiofy.

Arthmender supports joint health by reducing inflammation, improving lubrication, and promoting circulation. Arthmender supplies Turmeric, Ginger, and Guggul extracts which are all proven to reduce arthritis symptoms. Reduced joint pain and better movement are evident in the first month of taking Arthmender.

To better serve customers, it is important to explain the relationship between the various chronic diseases.

Poor blood sugar control causes inflammation and hardening of blood vessels. This leads to cardiovascular disease. Taking AyurGold and Cardiofy provides synergistic protection from damage.

Diabetes causes musculoskeletal changes that lead to joint problems. People diagnosed with Diabetes are twice as likely to have Arthritis. Taking AyurGold and Arthmender is recommended if the customer is experiencing blood sugar and joint problems.

Arthritis affects 57% of adults with heart disease mostly as a result of physical inactivity. Taking Arthmender and Cardiofy is recommended anytime a person is experiencing heart and joint problems.

Be sure to ask questions in regards to all aspects of health like blood sugar, heart, and joints – BEFORE making supplement recommendations. Most people will be suffering from more than one problem.

In all cases, healthy diet, active lifestyle, and adequate rest should be recommended in conjunction with supplementation for a sustained return to good health.

Thank you for choosing India Herbs as your natural choice for therapeutic health.

Namaste.
