Pumpkin, Sweet potato and Coconut milk Health Benefits !!!
The pumpkin is excellent for health. They protect against UV rays. Studies have also noted that it can reduce the risk of melanoma, and other skin diseases.
Rich in fiber, pumpkin is also full of vitamins C and E.
It helps to strengthen immune defenses and is needed in winter.
It contains large amounts of potassium that fight against hypertension.
And carotenoid pigments such as alpha-carotene (vitamin A), beta-carotene and lutein, known to prevent the appearance of many diseases, including certain cancers.
Vitamin A is good for the eyesight. If like me, you are myopic, it's good news! ^^
Pumpkin is a source of fiber with few calories! So it's good to lose weight.
The sweet potato has the same benefits as the pumpkin for: good skin, immunity, and the risks of cancers.
In addition, she has other benefits. Thanks to its phenolic compounds, the sweet potato could prevent the oxidation of bad cholesterol (LDL) and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Some sweet potato pigments help fight some memory problems. I need it ... XD
The coconut milk helps fight infection. Coconuts are highly nutritious and rich in fibers, vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5 and B6 and minerals including iron, selenium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and phosphorous.
