GREEK ROASTED UNSALTED IN-SHELL PEANUTS

ROASTED UNSALTED IN-SHELL PEANUTS FROM EVIA

Peanuts are characterized as a super, concentrated food. They are one of the few foods that, in small quantities, provide us with a multitude of beneficial ingredients.

More specifically, just a handful covers a significant percentage of daily energy needs, good monounsaturated fatty acids, fiber, vitamins (especially B complex), minerals and beneficial antioxidants.
Even 25 grams of peanuts are rich in nutrients and contain 10 percent of the daily needs for vitamins and minerals such as vitamin B6, thiamine, magnesium, phosphorus and copper, and fiber.

They contain a high amount of potassium , which helps the body by lowering levels of the stress hormone cortisol, more than any other nut.

Studies have come to confirm that peanuts in shell contain the ingredients lutein and zeaxanthin , which have a beneficial effect on our eyes.

And all this with just 170 calories per serving of about 30 grams!

With 3 or 4 calories each, pistachios have the fewest calories of all nuts . This means we can cover a significant portion of our daily nutrient needs naturally, especially if we enjoy them uncooked and unsalted.
