Nut is a very popular healthy snack, which is not only delicious and crispy, but also embodies the essence of plant nutrition as the seeds carefully cultivated by plants: it is not only rich in minerals such as potassium, calcium and magnesium, which are very beneficial to the health of bones and teeth, but also rich in unsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidant vitamin E, which can keep the body young by fighting free radicals.

However, after all, the oil content of nuts is basically as high as 50%, which is a great energy source, so although nuts are good, don't be greedy. Healthy people should not exceed 15g of nuts every day, which is about a handful of nuts with shells, equivalent to 10 almonds and 2 or 3 walnuts. In addition to paying attention to controlling the daily consumption, the following people should be especially careful, nuts may not be suitable for you to eat.

1. Infants with immature swallowing ability:

Nuts are hard in texture and large in particles, so it is not easy for adults to chew them at once. Therefore, for children whose chewing and swallowing abilities are not fully developed, nuts can easily get stuck in the esophagus or even slip into the trachea due to choking, causing serious safety accidents such as suffocation. Therefore, children under the age of 6 must be taken care of by adults when eating nuts. For children under 3 years old, it is best to chop up nuts and eat them to avoid danger.

2, diarrhea in patients with intestinal diseases:

Nuts are rich in oil and protein, and are not easily digested in the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, nuts also contain a lot of dietary fiber, which has a strong "moisturizing" effect. Therefore, people with diarrhea or acute infection of digestive system need to avoid eating nuts temporarily.
