There are plenty of reasons why people should go nutty on nuts. Nuts are considered to be nature's very own power snack containing a lot of beneficial nutrients and essential vitamins. Eaten in moderation, all nuts are high in protein, fibre, antioxidants and monosaturated fat giving you a boost of energy to be able to get on with your daily tasks. Nuts contain no cholesterol and are great cholesterol fighters. They reduce the risk of heart disease and different types of cancer.

Almonds contain a significant amount of Vitamin E and are high in calcium. Cashew nuts are a good source of copper, magnesium, manganese and phosphorous whereas walnuts, on the other hand are the only nuts containing a significant amount of omega 3 fatty acids which is the same as found in fish.
