evidence for pumpkin seed oil

Our honest take

Pumpkin seed oil softgels from the DY Life range. The oil is mostly omega-6 and omega-9 fats, which most people already get plenty of from food. Studies on pumpkin seed for men's urinary comfort are small and mixed, there are no authorised health claims, and we make no claims about the prostate or any condition. We could not verify the oil per softgel, so check the pack.

You have chosen pumpkin seed oil for yourself and understand the evidence is limited
You have new or changing urinary symptoms: see your GP rather than self-treating
You are looking for omega-3: pumpkin seed oil contains very little
You are pregnant or take regular medicines, without checking with your pharmacist

The science

Pumpkin seed oil· evidence: Limited

Pumpkin seed oil is pressed from pumpkin seeds and is mostly omega-6 (linoleic acid) and omega-9 fats, with some vitamin E and plant sterols.

Pumpkin seed has a traditional use for men's urinary comfort, and studies have looked at it in older men, with mixed and modest results. Evidence for other uses is very limited. There are no authorised health claims for pumpkin seed oil, and we make no claims about any prostate or urinary condition.

Most people already get plenty of omega-6 from food. Any new or changing urinary symptoms should be checked by a GP.

Typical dose: Products usually give 500 to 2,000 mg of oil a day.

Safety: Generally well tolerated. New or worsening urinary symptoms in men need a GP check, not self-treatment.
