Raw Cashews

Raw cashews are a satisfying and nutritious snack. These South American-sourced nuts are high in protein, fiber and healthy fats. We love adding these tasty raw cashews to rice dishes and curries for an extra bite of protein and flavor. They are unsalted, huge and delicious for snacking or cooking.

4 Surprising Health Benefits of Raw Cashews

1) Heart Health: The fat content found in cashews is predominantly heart-healthy monounsaturated fats. This type of “good” fat can reduce LDL cholesterol levels when it is used to replace saturated fat in the diet.

2) Antioxidant Defense: Cashews are also chock-full of powerful antioxidants, which could play an important role in their heart-protective benefits. They are an especially rich source of the fat-soluble antioxidant Vitamin E, which can protect your body against toxins.

3) Aids Weight Loss: Making nuts a regular part of your diet can also fend off weight gain. Studies suggest that frequent nut consumption is associated with a reduced risk for weight gain. Swap out processed snacks for a handful of nuts the next time hunger strikes.

4) Good Source of Minerals: Cashews are a plentiful source of minerals like iron, magnesium and phosphorus. They also contain small amounts of zinc, potassium and selenium. A serving of cashews can help you get more essential minerals in your diet.
