Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Cashew (Roasted, Salted)

  • Metabolic Effect: Salted cashews can cause water retention and raise blood pressure due to their salt content. Excessive consumption can lead to weight gain due to their high calorie content.
  • Consumption Recommendation: Prefer unsalted or lightly salted varieties and pay attention to portion control. Drink plenty of water alongside to maintain the body's water balance.
  • Things to Consider: Due to the high sodium content, especially those with hypertension should consume it carefully. A handful of cashews is about 30 grams and meets a significant portion of the daily fat requirement.
  • Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories in a handful of cashews, you need to walk for about 25 minutes. Be more active during the day to balance the calories.
