There are five nuts that are the most nutritious. Here they are:
Almonds- These are loaded with antioxidants and protein. They also have vitamin E and assist with blood sugar control.
Walnuts- Are a great source of fatty Omega-3 and can act as a mood booster.
Brazil Nuts- Rich in selenium and supports thyroid function. May reduce inflammation and is good for the heart. Be careful not to eat too much because it can cause selenium toxicity.
Pistachios- This member of the cashew family is an excellent source of antioxidants, protein, and fiber. They help you feel fuller for longer
Cashews- Good sources of fiber, minerals like copper, manganese, magnesium, zinc, iron, phosphorus, and selenium as well as vitamins like thiamine, vitamin K and B6.
My favorites are walnuts and pistachios.

I love them all except for one. I haven't tried Brazil Nuts. It's my first time to hear about it.

I eat almonds every day. Sometimes, cashews or pistachios. Today, I had chopped walnuts with my lunch:) Nuts are good protein and they are so delicious!

@kobesbuddy ...... I wish I could eat them but due to a lack of teeth I can't.

That's good. I can't eat them any more because of my teeth but sure enjoyed them when I could.

Those are all expensive nuts in my country. We only have peanuts and cashews but so much of cashews makes me dizzy.
