Hazelnuts, the nut of the hazel tree, have been cherished for centuries, originating primarily in Europe and Asia but now enjoyed worldwide. These small, round nuts are nutrient powerhouses, packed with healthy monounsaturated fats, dietary fiber, and protein, making them a satisfying and heart-friendly snack. Rich in vitamins and minerals, hazelnuts are an excellent source of vitamin E, magnesium, and B vitamins, supporting skin health, bone strength, and energy metabolism. They also contain powerful antioxidants like phenolic compounds, which may help reduce inflammation and protect against oxidative stress. Hazelnuts feature prominently in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, often used in desserts, spreads like hazelnut butter, or combined with chocolate in treats like praline and Nutella. While highly nutritious, they are calorie-dense, so moderation is key to keeping your diet balanced. Whether eaten roasted, raw, or ground into flour, hazelnuts provide a delicious and wholesome addition to any meal plan.
