Read More »It might seem like there’s a “pumpkin spice” version of everything during the fall season. But you may be wondering what exactly pumpkin spice is, and whether it’s all that good for you. You might be surprised to learn that there’s actually no pumpkin in pumpkin spice at all. Rather, pumpkin spice consists of a blend of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, according to Scientific American. (Ginger and other spices are sometimes added for variety.) It’s so named because it was originally intended for making pumpkin pies. The earliest premade pumpkin spice was first available in stores in the 1950s; these days, you can still find it in the spice aisle at your local grocery store, but you can easily make your own pumpkin spice blend at home, too. The rise of pumpkin spice-containing commercial foods can be traced back to the 1990s, and the famous Pumpkin Spice Latte (or PSL) from Starbucks launched in 2003. These days, pumpkin spice can be found in cookies, cereals, coffee creamers, crackers, and more. Pumpkin spice itself isn’t bad for you — but when combined with the multitude of sugary and processed foods it’s now added to, it’s a lot less healthy. Before you buy your next PSL, consider the following nutrition facts for a grande version with 2 percent milk, provided by Starbucks:

It's also considered mildly diuretic, which means eating a lot of pumpkin may induce a “water pill”-like reaction, increasing the amount of water and salt your body expels through urine (33).
Pumpkin is a type of winter squash that belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family. It’s native to North America and particularly popular around Thanksgiving and Halloween ( 1 ). In the US, pumpkin typically refers to Cucurbita pepo, an orange type of winter squash. In other regions, such as Australia, pumpkin may refer to any type of winter squash. While commonly viewed as a vegetable, pumpkin is scientifically a fruit, as it contains seeds. That said, it’s nutritionally more similar to vegetables than fruits. Beyond its delicious taste, pumpkin is nutritious and linked to many health benefits.
