Pecans

Walnuts, Pecans, Pistachios

Heart-friendly pecans are packed with plant sterols, valuable compounds that are effective at lowering cholesterol levels.

Pecans are also antioxidant-rich which helps prevent the plaque formation that causes hardening of the arteries.

They’re rich in oleic acid, the healthy fat found in olives and avocado. As a good source of vitamin B3 pecans are the perfect option if you’re fighting fatigue because this vitamin helps us access the energy in our food.
