4 Surprising Health Benefits of Pili Nuts
1) Monounsaturated Fats: Nearly half of the fat found in pili nuts comes from beneficial, heart-healthy monounsaturated fat. Foods rich in monounsaturated fats can help lower bad cholesterol levels and reduce the risk for heart disease.
2) Magnesium: Pili nuts contain the highest source of magnesium of nearly any nut. Magnesium plays an important role in keeping blood pressure normal and supporting bone health.
3) Complete Protein: Considered a complete protein source, pili nuts provide all eight essential amino acids that the human body must obtain through diet. The high-quality protein found in pili nuts makes them a great post-workout snack.
4) Phosphorus: This mineral is responsible for maintaining bone health and is considered the second most important element for bone support, right behind calcium. Luckily, pili nuts are a superb source of phosphorus. Your bones will thank you!
