Health fact: Cashews
With their mildly nutty flavour and slightly buttery, yet crunchy texture, cashews are one of the most popular types of nuts. But it is not only because of their taste that it is worthwhile to reach for the kernels more often. As a trader who sells nuts, we are not allowed by law to make health-related statements about cashews, but we can tell you what vital and nutritious substances the nuts contain.
Their high content of high-quality vegetable protein makes them a popular source of protein. With a protein content of about 18g per 100g, they are especially important for people who abstain from animal products. Athletes also like to reach for the protein-rich seeds. They are also rich in unsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Cashews are also a good source of magnesium and phosphorus. These minerals are important for muscles, nerves, teeth and bones. Due to their high content of B vitamins, cashews are also often called ideal nerve food.
With almost 290mg of L-tryptophan per 100g, cashews are one of the best sources of L-tryptophan. Tryptophan is an amino acid. In the body, serotonin is produced from it. This messenger substance is also known colloquially as the happiness hormone, as it is said to have an antidepressant and relaxing effect.
