Dr. Berg… I started eating pumpkin seeds a little over a year and a half ago to help me stop quitting smoking. I have not had a single cigarette in almost 17 months but I do eat a lot of pumpkin seeds. I would say on average, 30 to 40 seeds, 6 to 7 times a day. They just taste that good. Am I doing my body any damage?
