About Two spoons of cashew
Two spoons of cashews, weighing approximately 30 grams, are a delicious and nutrient-dense snack with roots in South American cuisine, where the cashew tree is native, though they are now widely used in African, Indian, and Southeast Asian dishes. Cashews are packed with heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, plant-based protein, and essential minerals like magnesium, copper, and zinc, which support bone health, immunity, and energy production. They also provide antioxidants and fiber, promoting overall well-being. However, cashews are calorie-dense, delivering about 160 calories in just two spoonfuls, so they should be consumed in moderation, especially for those monitoring their weight. Additionally, while their healthy fats can be beneficial, excessive intake may contribute to high calorie consumption. Whether eaten raw, roasted, or blended into creamy recipes, cashews are a versatile, flavorful ingredient that adds both nutrition and indulgence to your diet.
