Health Benefits of Nuts

A nut is actually a fruit produced by a tree; however, unlike conventional fruits, nuts are dry inside and become hard when they reach maturity. Trees use nuts to reproduce, but people around the world have been gathering them to eat as food for centuries. Nuts contain a number of beneficial nutrients, including dietary fiber, omega-3fatty acids and vitamin E. In addition, nuts are a good source of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats and the amino acid l-arginina, which are believed to promote heart health. Nuts also contain plant sterols that have been shown to lower cholesterol levels.

Types Of Nuts

There are many different types of nuts to choose from. Some popular varieties include almonds, brazil nuts, castañas de cajú, chestnuts, hazelnuts, macadamias, pecans, pistachios and walnuts. Many of these types of nuts are available for purchase individually. You can also buy mixed nuts that contain two or more varieties of nuts.

De-shelled & Shelled Nuts

Once you have focused on the type of nut that you prefer, you can compare other features of the products to find the best one for your needs. Start by considering the forms of the nuts. Are they still in the shells? Are they de-shelled but whole or have they been halved or chopped? Do you need raw nuts or nuts that have already been roasted? It's also important to consider the preparations. Some nuts are plain, while others are salted or mixed with other spices. Typically, plain nuts are used for baking and cooking. Seasoned options may be preferred when you're enjoying mixed nuts as a snack on their own.
