Macadamia Nuts

A macadamia nut is the smooth, ivory coloured kernel that is encased in the husk of the fruit grown on a Macadamia tree. They have a sweet, buttery flavour and are packed with nutrients, minerals, antioxidants and vitamins that are essential for overall wellness and optimum health. Adding these nuts to your diet will also provide you with a good percentage of calcium, iron, selenium, copper, phosphorus, zinc, magnesium and manganese. These nuts also contain vitamin A and E. They are a healthy, tasty, versatile protein source for vegetarians. Macadamia nuts are a rich source of monounsaturated fats, and because they are cholesterol free food, they can be included in a heart healthy diet that includes proper cholesterol management.
