About Cacahuete
Cacahuete, commonly known as peanut, is a nutrient-packed legume native to South America. Often mistaken for a nut due to its culinary use, peanuts are rich in protein, healthy fats, and essential vitamins like vitamin E and B-complex. They're also a good source of minerals, including magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. Peanuts are widely used in global cuisines, especially in Asian, African, and Latin American dishes, ranging from savory stews to sweet desserts. Their high monounsaturated fat content supports heart health, while their protein aids in muscle repair and growth. Peanuts also provide fiber, promoting digestion and satiety. However, they are calorie-dense and can be high in sodium when processed or seasoned, so moderation is key. For individuals with peanut allergies, consumption must be avoided entirely, as it can trigger severe reactions.
