Finally there is credible research that proves tree nuts are actually good for you, not the fatty culprits portrayed on the USDA Food Pyramid.

Everyone needs some fat to stay healthy. Fat components in our food provide flavor, and supply calories that give you energy. It is important to know that there are "good fats" and "bad fats". Unsaturated fat, the good fat is found in organic nuts, other plant food and fish. These fats may lower your cholesterol and your risk of heart disease. Saturated fat, the bad one is found mostly in animal and whole fat dairy products, increases LDL cholesterol (the bad stuff) and increases the danger of heart attack and stroke.


So. if you are trying to figure out how to eat smart and stay healthy, there are several good reasons to choose organic nuts. Frequent consumption of nuts has shown to reduce the risk of chronic illness such as heart disease, diabetes, and some forms of cancer. Organic nuts are loaded with essential minerals and vitamins, especially vitamin E, the antioxidant. They also contain critical amino acids and are an important source of fiber. Organic nuts are also a good source of protein, especially almonds and walnuts.

The key to including organic nuts in your diet without adding extra fat and calories is portion control. As little as one hand full (approximately one ounce) of organic nuts per day can provide numerous nutritional benefits.

"I just want to let you know how much we enjoyed the roasted almonds. We live in almond country and actually have a few of our own trees, but we have never enjoyed almonds as much as the ones we received from you! I have been on the South Beach Diet and am allowed 15 almonds a day - what a treat they are."

How do I use the organic nuts once I get them?

Breakfast: Sprinkle chopped organic almonds, organic pecans or organic walnuts on your yogurt, hot or cold cereal, or in cream cheese spreads for bagels. You can also chop and add to your favorite organic pancake, waffle or muffin recipe. Try our Organic Golden Wheat flour for your needs.

Snacks: Organic tree nuts are perfect as a tasty snack between meals and research has shown that they may keep you full longer; protein sticks to your ribs longer than carbohydrates.

For better portion control, divide your organic tree nuts into one-ounce portions and store them in individual bags. This way, you can simply grab a bag of almonds, pecans or walnuts on your way out the door, or keep a few bags on hand in the car or in your desk for easy snacking, it's best to keep the nuts in the refrigerator at home for freshness or in the freezer for long-term storage.

Appetizers: Add organic almonds, pecans and walnuts to any cheese and cracker platter or simply serve them in a bowl to enjoy.

Main Dishes: Organic nuts can be added to soups, salads, vegetables and pasta for your health and enjoyment.
