About Pista

Pistachios, often referred to as "pista," are nutrient-rich nuts originating from the Middle East and Central Asia. They are a staple in various cuisines, from Persian and Indian dishes to Mediterranean desserts. Known for their vibrant green color and mildly sweet, nutty flavor, pistachios are packed with health benefits. They are an excellent source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats, particularly monounsaturated fats, which support heart health. Additionally, pistachios are rich in antioxidants, including vitamin E and lutein, which support eye health and combat oxidative stress. They also provide essential nutrients like potassium, magnesium, and B-vitamins. While pistachios are nutritious, moderation is key, as they are calorie-dense. Choose unsalted or minimally processed options to avoid added sodium or sugar. Perfect as a snack or ingredient, pistachios offer a balance of taste and wellness.
