Have you tried using pumpkin seed oil?

Pumpkin seed oil has many benefits and uses.  See some of them below:

• Improve prostate function
• Lower cholesterol
• Treatment for cystitis
• Improve Kidney Function
• Ease Arthritis pain
• Prevent Diabetes
• Anti-Parasitic
• Increasing mother’s milk production

The dressing is a combination of pumpkin seed oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and dried thyme. I love it because it’s tangy and sweet. You’ll feel “fall” in your mouth.
