NUTS AND SEEDS
Nuts and seeds are tasty, nutritional foods for your brain, nerves and skin. They also have a higher content of complete protein than all other plants, with the exception of soybean. Nuts and seeds are the best dietary source of the essential polyunsaturated fatty acids: Omega 3 linoleic acid, omega-6 linoleic acid and gamma linoleic acid. They are essential fats that the body cannot manufacture itself but does require.
These essential fatty acids are transformed in the body into prostaglandins, a hormone-like substance the body needs daily. Nuts have a high mineral content; they are good sources of phosphorus for the brain, for formation of red blood cells, and of sulphur content for the liver. Nuts are also rich in B - vitamins especially niacin and biotin , and also contain Vit- E.
