Nutritionist Mansi Padechia ( certified in India) said that although nuts are a healthy snacking choice, if not controlled, they can cause health problems.
Each type of seed needs to have a suitable amount of consumption to take advantage of the benefits without harming. Here is how much seed you should eat each day to stay healthy:
Almonds (14 fruits)
Almonds provide about 20% (about 76 mg) of your recommended daily magnesium intake. They are very good for the immune system and cardiovascular health. However, you should only eat a small handful to avoid consuming too many calories and fat.
Cashews (11 seeds)
Cashews contain Anacardic acid, which helps protect cells from oxidative stress and has the ability to kill bacteria that cause tooth decay. Although cashews are nutritious, you should only eat a small amount of cashews per day.
Pistachios (21 grains)
Pistachios are a great source of the amino acid L-arginine, which helps promote blood vessel health. Pistachios are also rich in healthy fats, fiber, protein, antioxidants, vitamin B6 and thiamine.
Eating chestnuts helps reduce cholesterol, blood sugar levels and supports gut health.
Peanuts (10 seeds)
Pears are a rich source of vitamin E, which helps improve skin and hair health. In addition, they also contain omega-3 and antioxidants that help lower blood pressure and support heart health. Pears have a slightly sweet and crispy flavor, making them an ideal snack.
Walnuts (4 fruits)
Walnuts are rich in heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. They can help improve brain health, reducing the risk of heart disease and cancer. By eating only about 4 fruits a day, you can take advantage of the health benefits without worrying about gaining weight.
Although nuts are very healthy, they are also high in calories and fat, so reasonable consumption and regulation are very important.
