Description<\/h3>\n

Peanuts are an oily fruit from the same family as chestnuts, walnuts, and hazelnuts, and are rich in fats that help reduce inflammation in the body and protect the heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How to consume<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Even with this diversity of consumption possibilities, the most suitable for daily use is raw peanuts. Any natural food exposed to heat, weather, humidity, and any other environmental changes tends to undergo changes in its properties and characteristics.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

When roasted, for example, it experiences a decrease in the concentration of proteins, dietary fiber and carbohydrates, while its caloric content can increase by up to 11%.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Therefore, the best type for daily consumption is raw. Even raw, consumption should be moderate, not exceeding portions equivalent to the palm of your hand, five times a week.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, consumption by men should be guided by a nutritionist, as the oilseed is toxic and can increase the risk of cancer in men.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
