1. Lasting energy for busy days
Flagging in the middle of the afternoon? Organic unshelled peanuts are your natural fuel. Rich in protein (around 25 g per 100 g) and in healthy fats, they provide steady energy without the abrupt crashes that come with sugary snacks. They bring 168 mg of magnesium per 100 g and are high in niacin (12.1 mg): magnesium contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, and niacin contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
The bonus? Their natural shell keeps them fresh, for an intense taste in every bite. Tip: keep a bag in your rucksack for a snack that travels.
2. An ally for your heart
Organic peanuts are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, similar to those in olive oil. Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats in the diet contributes to the maintenance of normal blood cholesterol levels.
Add to that their potassium — 705 mg per 100 g, more than a banana weight for weight. Potassium contributes to the maintenance of normal blood pressure. A tasty idea: lightly toast your shelled peanuts and scatter them over a salad.
3. A boost for muscles and recovery
If you play sport, or simply want to maintain muscle, peanuts are a friend. Their protein content makes them a fine snack after exercise, and their magnesium completes the argument: magnesium contributes to normal muscle function and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
The unshelled format adds something else: cracking the shell slows you down, and lets you eat consciously. Tip: mix organic peanuts with organic dried mango for a post-training snack.
4. Bright skin and strong hair
After a natural glow? Organic unshelled peanuts are high in vitamin E — 8.3 mg per 100 g, close to 70 % of the reference value. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. They are also rich in zinc and copper: zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal skin, normal hair and normal nails, and copper contributes to maintenance of normal connective tissues.
Of everything we sell, the peanut is the best supplied in vitamin E — an argument often, and wrongly, given to the cashew.
5. Fibre, folate and a feeling of fullness
Organic peanuts are high in fibre, and fibre satisfies: enough to head off impulsive snacking between meals. Being unshelled slows the eating down, which helps you listen to your own hunger.
They are also high in folate — 240 µg per 100 g, more than a whole day’s reference value: folate contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Suggestion: add lightly crushed shelled peanuts to a vegetable curry for crunch and fibre.
