MIXED ROASTED BEANS AND NUTS AND PACKAGE THEM IN 50 GRAMS TO 200 GRAMS (DING DONG SNACK TYPE)

Nuts are defined as dry, single-seeded fruits with a high oil content, enclosed in a tough outer layer. Many seeds also fall into this category (such as sunflower and safflower). Some, like peanuts, fit more than one description (both a legume and seed). For the purpose of simplicity, in this article we will include all species commonly referred to as “nuts” and “seeds,” regardless of their specific category.

Nuts and seeds are extremely nutrient-dense. They provide generous amounts of calories, fats, complex carbohydrates, protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Trace minerals like magnesium, zinc, selenium and copper are important but may be under-consumed in today’s largely processed Western diet, and even in some plant-based diets. Nuts and seeds are a reliable and delicious source of these essential nutrients. Plus, more than just a way to meet basic nutrient needs, nuts and seeds have been shown to protect against disease. Phytochemicals, bioactive compounds that help fight illness, in nuts and seeds include ellagic acid, flavonoids, phenolic compounds, luteolin, isoflavones and tocotrienols. Nuts also contain plant sterols, thought to help keep cholesterol levels in check and reduce cancer risk.

A few nut nutrient notables: Brazil nuts are the highest food source of the essential mineral selenium. Cashews have more iron than other nuts. An ounce of pine nuts has more manganese than even the RDA. Sunflower seeds are the richest source of vitamin E. And pistachios are by far the best nut source of lutein, a phytochemical important for eye health. Eating a variety of nuts and seeds daily ensures that you’re getting a healthy balance of these and other important nutrients.
