Fox nuts, also known as makhana, are nutrient-rich seeds harvested from the Euryale fox water lily, a plant native to Asia. Commonly used in Indian cuisine, they serve as a popular ingredient in roasted snacks, snacks mixes, and desserts like puddings. These seeds are a powerhouse of nutrition, packed with protein, fiber, and essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, making them ideal for supporting bone health, heart function, and digestion. Low in fat and calories, fox nuts are a great option for weight management. Additionally, their antioxidant properties may help combat inflammation and promote overall health. However, commercial variants of flavored or fried fox nuts can be high in sodium and unhealthy fats. For the healthiest benefits, opt for plain or lightly roasted varieties. Their crunchy texture and mild flavor make them versatile and suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.
