Kitty said: Yes.Which type of nuts are the healthiest and most nutritious? pecans? almonds? cash-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(Which type of nuts are the healthiest and most nutritious? pecans? almonds? cash),it will help you,my kids.
Answer:
My own research into this came up with the following:
Ranked by their nutrient density.the varieties listed here contain the most protein, fiber, B-vitamins, calcium, minerals, and vitamin E for the least amount of saturated fat: 1.Almonds 2. Filberts (hazelnuts) 3. Peanuts 4. Chestnuts 5. Pistachios 6. Walnuts 7.Cashews 8. Pecans 9. Macadamias
Nutrients in one ounce of almonds (a medium-size handful):
? 166 calories
? 5 grams of protein
? 14 grams of fat (90 percent unsaturated)
? 4 grams of fiber (the highest fiber content of any nut or
seed), unblanched
? 80 milligrams of calcium
? 1.4 milligrams of zinc
? 1 milligram of iron
? 6.7 milligrams of vitamin E
? some B-vitamins, minerals, and selenium
Though ranked the best, I Iearned from a practioner of Ayurvedic medicine that almonds are not easily digestible - so that's something to consider also
Filberts, (hazelnuts) because they are high in the amino acid tryptophan, are a good nut for sleep. Almonds and filberts have the most vitamin E (6.7 milligrams per ounce) - nearly 25 percent of the adult recommended dietary allowance.
Walnuts have the greatest concentration of omega-3 fatty acids.
Chestnuts are lowest in fat, containing only about 10 percent as much fat as other nuts. What little fat is in the chestnut (1.3 grams per ounce) is nearly all the unsaturated type. Chestnuts also contain three grams of fiber per ounce, but they are relatively low in protein.
It is interesting to note that soybean nuts and peanuts which are not really nuts at all.but legumes meaning that they come from plants rather than trees, are very nutritious. Soybean nuts, while less popular because of their less appealing taste, are actually the most nutritious nut.
I hope this helpful
pistachios are good, less oil,,,,,
I believe it is Almonds. I eat lots of nuts and almonds in particular.
But read this and they will tell you.

There is no "silver bullet " nut that has all the good nutrients in it . It is best to eat a mixture of nuts just like you eat various different veggies and fruits.
They are all equal, Pistachios have a slight lead for fibre.
All nuts are good in various nutrients. Eat 8 to 10 pcs of each and it will give balance nutrients you need. Some nuts are more expensive then other, so peanuts are the choice of the poor.
Pecans may help prevent heart disease and cancer. Eating almonds each day lowers cholesterol significantly. Hazel nuts reduce cholesterol. Almonds promote colon health. Eating nuts cut heart death risk in men. One ounce of peanuts contains many of the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body’s growth and maintenance. Women who eat nuts or peanut butter regularly significantly seduce their risk for Type 2 Diabetes
almonds maybe
they are all healthy and nutrious in their own ways. there is no 'best' to the nuts, thats what i believe
good question, pecans
was just reading recently in a mag that walnuts are high in omega 3 ....
I read in a Health magazine that if you eat a handful of walnuts a day that it helps keep your heart healthy because of the omega acids in them.
Almonds,that is what my momma says.

Almonds.
Almonds are Delicious and healthy

walnuts.they break down the fat much quicker.so if you ate a meal an hour ago, eat walnut now and you will be breaking all the fat content,tried and tested
Almonds!!!
Whichever nut is your favorite, try toasting nuts in the oven or atop the stove to bring out the flavor (be mindful not to burn): 250 degrees for 6-8 minutes should do; shake the pan mid-way.
Once you toast, you'll never go back to straight-from-the-bag again.
pistachios.. hands down
all nuts are good and healthy but if i recall it is the walnut that takes the cake for the highest nutrients in smallest package
It's good to eat a variety for better health. Each one may offer something the body needs.

Nuts are a wholesome snack option.
One ounce of peanuts contains many of the vitamins and minerals necessary for the body’s growth and maintenance.
The beneficial fats in peanuts, which are about 81% unsaturated, can help lower cholesterol levels when they replace saturated fats in the diet.

The pistachio nut differs from all other nuts because of its characteristic green color. It is also sometimes called the “smiling nut” because of its semi-open shell.
The peanut can also be referred to as a “goober,” a name derived from the African term “nguba” which means “peanut.”
From “g’day” to “aloha!” Though the macadamia nut originated in Australia, today Hawaii produces 90% of the world’s supply of the “queen nut!” This makes Hawaii the macadamia nut capital of the world.
Hazelnuts have been around as long as the primitive man as proven by prehistoric fossils found in Northern Europe.
Even though the trees that produce cashews can grow up to 50 feet tall and live for 30-40 years, they may only produce around 10 pounds of edible cashews a year!
Peanuts grow in a fascinating manner. They actually start out as an above-ground flower but eventually make their way underground where the peanut matures.
The hazelnut tree was first planted in the United States in1858 in Oregon’s Umpqua Valley.
Pistachio nuts are the only edible nuts which don’t need to be shelled for roasting and salting.
It can take 15 to 25 years for a pine tree to begin producing the pine nut seed and up to triple that time for them to reach top production.

The Fava bean cause it's a bean but it's somewhat nut like. It's bigger than most beans
and has more nutrition than most nuts but if it you compare it to regular beans then beans are better. But You're asking what's the most nutritious nut. Regular nuts there's nothing really a better than others. Most will likely say Pistachio is it!
I hear almonds and walnuts are among the most nutritious.
Cashews. Also the most expensive.
