Pumpkin Seeds | Raw Pepitas Seeds – Unroasted & Unsalted | Herblo Naturals

What are Raw Pumpkin Seeds?

Herblo Naturals pumpkin seeds — also called pumpkin kernels or kaddu ke beej — are 100% raw, unroasted, and unsalted seeds sourced and packed with zero additives. These are the same premium *kaddu seeds* used in traditional Pakistani and South Asian households for generations, now available straight to your door.

Pumpkin seeds — known as *کدو کے بیج* (kaddu ke beej) in Urdu — have quietly been part of Pakistani households for generations. Today, health-conscious Pakistanis are rediscovering these *unroasted pumpkin seeds* as a whole-food nutrient boost — sprinkling them over dahi, blending them into smoothies, or enjoying a handful as a wholesome mid-day snack instead of processed biscuits or chips. Small habit, big impact.

Whether you are eating them as a snack, adding them to your morning oatmeal, sprinkling them over salads, or using them in cooking, our kaddu ke beej deliver maximum nutrition in every handful.
