About Cashew nut
Cashew nuts, native to tropical regions like Brazil and now grown widely in Asia and Africa, are flavorful seeds harvested from the cashew apple. Rich in nutrients, they are a great source of healthy fats, including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which support heart health. Cashews contain essential vitamins and minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, and vitamin K, contributing to bone health and immune function. They're also packed with protein, making them an excellent snack for sustaining energy levels. High in calories, cashews should be consumed in moderation, especially if you're watching your weight. Their creamy texture and sweet, nutty flavor make them a versatile ingredient in both savory and sweet recipes, from Asian stir-fries to vegan cheese alternatives. While they don’t contain cholesterol, cashews do have saturated fats, so balance is key when incorporating them into a healthy diet.
