Question: Which type of nuts would are more health beneficial?

(Posted by: em2241992 on 2009-07-01 17:37:10)

I am exercising again, so I want to know which ones are highest in protein, lowest in fat, and overall best for health. I know all nuts are somewhat high in protein and high in fat, but I just want a comparison between them, I just finished a container of peanuts, so I want to know should I stick with peanuts, or go for a new type that could be more beneficial? I knew they weren't, I just call them nuts because that is how I knew them growing up, force of habit, and they have nutrition similar to nuts

Any type of nut is excellent for you, so eating peanuts is great!! Since nuts are high in calories, you want to make sure you limit yourself to 1-2 oz a day (about a handful is an oz). Almonds were proven to be seeds, not a nut, but are still very beneficial for your health. I know that walnuts are REALLY good for you, as well are hazelnuts, pecans, peanuts, pistachios, etc. As long as you limit yourself, any nut is good for you!!
