Brazil Nuts: What's the Big Deal?

What's the big deal? Brazil nuts have a high selenium content and can be seen as a 'complete' protein source. Eat 8 medium (30 grams--one serving) of these crunchy nuts no more than two or three times a week (relatively high fat content). They should replace other fats for the days consumed.

Are they worth it? You decide.

All the necessary amino acids to foster optimal growth in humans are contained in the protein in Brazil nuts as they are in the proteins in animal product. (Great substitution.) Avoid salted, oil-roasted Brazil nuts (to reduce added fats and sodium in your diet).
