About Peanuts
Peanuts, originating from South America, are nutrient-dense legumes enjoyed globally in various cuisines, from snacks to sauces. Packed with protein, healthy fats, and fiber, they serve as an excellent energy source and support muscle repair and sustained fullness. Peanuts are rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin E, magnesium, and niacin, which contribute to heart health, brain function, and strong immune systems. Their high antioxidant content also helps combat oxidative stress. While versatile and nutritious, moderation is key: peanuts are calorie-rich, and salted or flavored varieties can contain excessive sodium or added sugars. They can be eaten raw, roasted, or transformed into butter, oil, or flour, making them a staple in dishes like Asian peanut sauces or African groundnut stews. As an affordable and accessible protein option, peanuts are both delicious and functional, though allergy concerns must be considered for sensitive individuals.
