Shiloh Farms - Brazil Nuts - 11 oz. (312 g.)
Shiloh Farms Brazil Nuts demand to be recognized in their own right as a delicious and healthy snack. High in protein, magnesium, phosphorus, manganese and zinc, brazil nuts are one of the best natural sources of selenium. In fact, a single serving contains over 5x the recommended daily value of this important trace mineral. As with many nuts, brazil nuts are also rich in heart-healthy Omega-3 fatty acids.
The brazil nut is technically not a true nut, but rather the edible seed of one of the largest of trees in the Amazon rainforest. Brazil nut trees can grow to over 160 feet tall (and 6 1/2 feet in diameter) and may live for up to 1,000 years. Widely found throughout Brazil, Bolivia and Peru, a mature tree can produce 250-500 pounds of unshelled nuts in a single year, and nuts are harvested from an estimated 250,000-400,000 trees annually.
- Creamy & Delicately Sweet
