Dietitian's Tips for Consuming Peanuts (Roasted, Salted)
Metabolic Effect: Salted roasted peanuts can increase blood pressure and cause water retention due to their fat and salt content. Excessive consumption can disrupt energy balance and contribute to weight gain.
Consumption Recommendation: Choose unsalted or lightly salted versions, and pay attention to portion control. Drink plenty of water alongside to help reduce the effects of sodium.
Things to Consider: Due to the high sodium content, those with hypertension should consume it carefully. A handful of peanuts is equivalent to approximately one serving of fatty nuts.
Exercise Equivalent: To burn the calories from a handful of peanuts (264 kcal), you need to walk at a moderate pace for about 30 minutes.
