Summer Nuts Selection Guide

With the soaring temperature, all cities in China are about to start the hot summer mode. People tend to be greedy for fruits, vegetables and cold drinks, but the reduction of animal food intake and the reduction of staple food intake naturally leads to insufficient intake of micronutrients such as zinc, iron, and selenium. At this time, nutritious nuts naturally become an important food, but how to eat nuts in summer to be healthy, today we will study it with you!

Choosing fresh nuts

Don't buy too many nuts in summer at once. After buying nuts, you should pack it in airtight jars while they are dry. When the air humidity is particularly high, it is best not to leave the nuts outside.

When buying nuts, we should give priority to the products taken out of vacuum sealed bags or the products with undamaged nut shells. In this way, the possibility of oxidation and deterioration of nuts is relatively small. For nuts in airtight packaging, first of all, it depends on whether the factory name, factory address, production date, shelf life and other signs on the outer packaging are complete.

When buying bulk nuts, you should check whether the product has been mildewed, and at the same time observe whether the shell is damaged. The damaged shell will pollute nut kernels. It is best not to buy.

Don't choose over roasted nuts

Most of the nuts on the market are roasted and fried. After these treatments, the vitamin content will be significantly reduced, the bioavailability of protein will be reduced, and vitamin E and ω- 3 unsaturated fatty acids will also be lost.

In summer, such processed nuts are more easy to make people feel dry and uncomfortable. So try to buy nuts in natural state that haven't been processed or just lightly roasted.

Eating with vegetables and fruits

The crispy taste and strong fragrant of nuts are just right with the bland vegetables, fruits and grains. These bland foods are especially suitable for people to eat in summer. If they are cooked with nuts, their nutritional value will be greatly improved.

Nuts are suitable food for all seasons, and there are not many taboos except that nuts should be eaten in moderation every day, and eating some nuts every day can not only supplement nutrition, but also beauty with many benefits. In summer, we should also adhere to the good habit of eating a handful of nuts every day!
