Unsalted cashews are creamy, kidney-shaped nuts native to tropical regions, particularly South America and Southeast Asia. A popular choice in both snacking and cooking, cashews are featured in diverse cuisines, from Indian curries to Southeast Asian stir-fries. Nutritionally, they provide a rich source of healthy fats, including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats that support heart health. Packed with protein, they’re excellent for sustained energy, and their high magnesium content promotes bone health and muscle function. Cashews also contain key vitamins like vitamin K and several B vitamins, along with antioxidants that help combat cell damage. Their lower sodium content makes unsalted cashews a healthier option for blood pressure management, though their calorie density means portion control is important. Whether eaten raw, roasted, or incorporated into recipes, unsalted cashews deliver a flavorful and nutrient-dense addition to any diet.
