Tip:
The pumpkin is an integral part of the treatment of prostate problems, bladder infections and indigestion. This is not only the case in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). In South America, pumpkins are still one of the staple foods of the Indians. During the cholera epidemic one swore by pumpkin diets and pumpkin infusions.
