About Hearts of palm
Hearts of palm are derived from the inner core of certain palm trees, commonly harvested from species like peach palms. Originating from Central and South America, this delicacy is widely used in tropical and Latin cuisines, often featured in salads, casseroles, or stir-fries. Packed with key nutrients, hearts of palm are low in calories, fat, and carbs, making them an excellent choice for those watching their diet. They are rich in fiber, supporting healthy digestion, and contain essential minerals like potassium, phosphorus, and magnesium, which benefit heart health and muscle function. Additionally, their vitamin C content boosts immunity and skin health. While hearts of palm are nutritious, their cultivation can have environmental impacts if not sustainably sourced, given concerns about overharvesting wild palms. Choosing certified sustainable products ensures both their health benefits and ecological responsibility.
