#2. Almonds
Native to the Middle East and Asia, the Almond tree produces edible seeds which are well-known throughout most of the world, simply as “Almonds”.
While wild almonds are toxic and have a bitter taste, the domesticated almond type has some great health benefits in store and tastes wonderful. It is one of the most nutritionally dense foods and is a rich source of vitamin E, dietary fiber, vitamin B, magnesium, copper, manganese, calcium, and potassium, among others.
If we look at some figure – For just 191 calories, a one-ounce serving provides 3.4 grams of fiber and a healthy dose of the aforementioned potassium, calcium, vitamin E, magnesium, and iron. Almonds have also been associated with cholesterol-lowering properties. Their great taste and many culinary uses make it easy for you to give your body all those things it needs.
