About Brazilian nuts
Brazil nuts, native to South America’s Amazon rainforest, are nutrient-rich seeds harvested from the towering Bertholletia excelsa tree. Renowned for their creamy texture and mild, buttery flavor, these nuts are commonly enjoyed raw, roasted, or blended into dishes, particularly in Brazilian cuisine. They are an excellent source of selenium, a powerful antioxidant that supports immune function, thyroid health, and cellular repair. Packed with healthy monounsaturated fats, protein, and fiber, Brazil nuts can promote heart health and satiety. They also provide vital nutrients like magnesium, phosphorus, and vitamin E. However, due to their high selenium content, overconsumption may lead to toxicity, so moderation is key. With their unique flavor and exceptional nutritional profile, Brazil nuts are both a versatile culinary ingredient and a potent superfood when consumed wisely.
