Grab a Handful of Pistachio Bites

We just celebrated World Pistachio Day and there are so many reasons to celebrate! Pistachios are a delicious snack that are loaded with nutrients that promote whole body health. Below are just a few of the reasons why Setton Farms love to celebrate this special day. 

Heart Health- with all the nutrients in pistachios, they are a heart healthy snack you can feel good about eating. Scientific evidence suggests that eating 1.5 ounces of pistachios as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may lower the risk of heart disease.

·       Prebiotics- I know you’ve heard of probiotics, but if you don’t consume a prebiotic before your probiotic, the probiotic is much less effective. Grab a handful of pistachios to keep your gut in tip top shape!

·       Vitamin B6- your body uses vitamin B6 to keep your brain and nervous system healthy, it also helps produce serotonin which will help regulate your sleep schedule.

·       Fiber- this helps you feel full for longer. Load up on fibrous foods like pistachios to help keep your hunger in check!

·       Protein- this helps your body build and repair tissues in addition to contributing to bone and muscle health.

·       Antioxidants- antioxidants help to protect the body from free radical molecules and can protect you from diseases.

·       They have the largest serving size- other snack nuts only have between 10-20 nuts per serving. Grab 49 pistachios for a powerful and satisfying snack!
