Seeds from common Korean fruits and vegetables like hot peppers, jujubes, and Korean melons (chamoe) are often discarded, but new research reveals their unexpected health benefits. Hot pepper seeds contain capsaicin and luteolin, which can aid memory enhancement and fat breakdown, though they should be consumed in moderation to avoid digestive issues. Jujube seeds are rich in iron and magnesium, helping to alleviate stress and insomnia. Meanwhile, chamoe seeds are excellent for constipation relief and are rich in folate, important for pregnant women. These discoveries highlight potentially significant benefits of often-overlooked plant seeds.
