Figures above were compiled from various sources including the US Dept. of Agriculture, and are approximate.  

There is historical evidence that nuts are the oldest form of food for man, birds, and wild animals. They are highly nutritious with a richness in protein, vitamins, and minerals. Recent research studies have concluded that many varieties of nuts contain fatty acids which have been linked to prevention of cardiovascular disease. Nuts are an excellent source of energy in the form of fat, consisting of mostly poly-unsaturated and mono-unsaturated fats. Mono- and poly-unsaturated vegetable fats reduce general blood cholesterol levels. Numerous studies bear this out, including one conducted by the American Medical Association, which concluded in July 1992 that, of the subjects studied, those eating nuts more than five times a week ran a relatively low risk of heart disease, compared with infrequent consumers and abstainers. Nuts were shown to have a "strong and consistent protective effect against coronary heart disease", according to the authors of the report. The vitamin and mineral content of nuts and seeds varies considerably, but several (walnuts, almonds, peanuts, sesame and sunflower seeds) contain iron and zinc; almonds and walnuts also contain potassium, magnesium is found in almonds and brazil nuts; B, B1 and B Complex vitamins are also present in almonds, brazil nuts, pumpkin and sunflower seeds; and almonds and sesame seeds are rich in vitamin E, an anti-carcinogenic antioxidant. Exercising in moderation and making sensible selections enables anyone to include nuts in their diet, even persons with health concerns. If you are unsure about how they can be used in your personal diet, consult your physician or nutritionist.

Here at Fredlyn we carry only shelled nuts for your convenience, easy and ready to use. Raw shelled nuts should always be kept airtight and under refrigeration and you should keep them only about two or three months, depending on their fat content. Nuts with a higher fat content will spoil more quickly. All raw nuts freeze well, and will keep about six months or longer. Most roasted nuts have a shelf life of about eight weeks or longer if kept airtight at room temperature.
