Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Your Favorite Nuts!
10. Pine Nuts: Tiny Package but Tons of Nutrition
Not as common as many other tree nuts, but still super delicious. Rich in vitamin A and lutein, both of which are well known for improving and maintaining healthy vision. These nuts also have vitamin D, are a good source of iron, as well as magnesium and protein, which makes these some of the most nutrition rich nuts in the tiniest little package!
You should note that if you are a peanut eater, these are not really considered to be true nuts and are less healthy for you than tree nuts. True nuts come from trees (peanuts are grown in the soil) and tree nuts have many health benefits, such as the ones mentioned above, while peanuts have not been found to have any real health benefits other than being a good source of protein.
You should also note that nuts can be high in fat and calories, so you should always consume them in moderation. One or two ounces each day is all it takes to get all of the health benefits.
