About Handful of almonds

A handful of almonds is a nutrient-dense snack rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisine, though they are enjoyed worldwide. Packed with protein, healthy fats, fiber, and essential vitamins like vitamin E, almonds support heart health, skin integrity, and brain function. They also contain minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and potassium, contributing to strong bones and balanced energy levels. Their rich monounsaturated fat content helps lower bad cholesterol, making them a heart-healthy choice. While almonds are naturally low in sugar and carbs, they are calorie-dense, so portion control is key for those watching their weight. Enjoy them raw, roasted, or in various dishes—almonds add crunch and nutrition to everything from salads to desserts.
