If you love pecans, try our mammoth pecan halves – you’ll be amazed!

According to a recent report published in the Journal of Agriculture and Food Chemistry, Raw pecan is perfect because it contains more antioxidants than any other nut. Antioxidants are substances found in foods that support the body’s ability to protect against cell damage.

Just a handful of pecans contain vitamin E, calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, fiber, and antioxidants. And because pecans are so rich in heart-healthy fat, it doesn’t take too many to feel full. In fact, studies have shown that eating nuts have a beneficial effect on the waistline.

Recently, several studies have found that nuts, including pecans, should be included in your daily diet to help support a healthy immune system response. A study completed at the University of Florida found that pecans are loaded with antioxidants to support a healthy constitution.

The Mayo Clinic conducted a study that found that all nuts are nutrient-dense and naturally cholesterol free. Not only are nuts cholesterol-free, but studies have suggested that eating pecans may support healthy lipid levels, leading to a decreased cardiovascular disease risk. The serving size for nuts is about one ounce, which equals about 15 pecan halves. Pecans are an excellent staple for vegetarians because one serving of pecans can take the place of the protein found in an ounce of meat. So, make sure you are eating enough pecans to reap all of the healthy benefits!
