Pumpkin Seed Oil

This is one of the most healthful oils for several reasons. High-quality pumpkin seed oil contains over 90 percent unsaturated fats and has both omega-6 and omega-3 essential fatty acids in a 3- to-1 ratio. It contains from zero to fifteen percent linolenic acid and from 45 to 60 percent linoleic acid. Unfortunately, the most commonly available pumpkin oil contains no linolenic acid (omega-3).
