About One handful of nuts

A handful of nuts is a nutrient-dense snack packed with protein, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. Common varieties include almonds, walnuts, cashews, and pistachios, often enjoyed worldwide in cuisines ranging from Mediterranean to Asian. High in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, nuts support heart health and may help manage cholesterol levels. They are rich in antioxidants like vitamin E and selenium, which combat oxidative stress, and offer fiber for improved digestion. Nuts also contain magnesium, crucial for muscle and nerve function, and energy-boosting B vitamins. While their healthy fats contribute to satiety and energy, they are calorie-dense, so portion control is essential. Avoid excessive consumption of salted or roasted nuts, as added sodium and oils can detract from their nutritional value. Perfect as a snack or ingredient in dishes, one handful provides a satisfying balance of taste and health benefits in a compact serving.
