Pistachios
Flavor: characteristic Setton’s pistachios are simply in a class by themselves and widely regarded as “America’s Best Tasting Pistachios” – their great taste and superior quality is universally unparalleled.
Today’s health conscious individual realizes the benefits that our California pistachios provide. With an abundance of vitamins and minerals, these delicious treats help support overall health and well-being. Our pistachios proudly display the American Heart Association’s Heart Check Mark, a trusted symbol that makes healthy eating choices easy for consumers. A one-ounce serving contains 49-shelled nuts (more per serving than any other nut) and more than 10% of the Daily Value for dietary fiber, vitamin B-6, thiamin, magnesium, phosphorus and copper. That same serving contains 300mg of potassium, as much as an orange.
Pistachios are naturally cholesterol-free and are especially rich in phytosterols, which are directly associated with lowering cholesterol levels, and may offer protection from certain types of cancer. They contain monounsaturated fat, similar to that found in olive oil, shown to lower both total and LDL “bad” cholesterol levels and reduce heart disease risk. |
