Food Facts

From a mixture of cashews, brazils and almonds, weighing 150g, (5 oz) a person weighing 75kg, (11st 9lbs) can obtain all their daily protein requirements and the calorie count will be only 1/3 of the daily calorie allowance.

 

Cashew nuts are significant sources of iron (essential for red blood cell function and enzyme activity), magnesium (promotes energy release and bone growth), phosphorus (builds bones and teeth), zinc (essential to digestion and metabolism) and selenium (has important antioxidant properties, thus protecting the body from cancer).
