Lisa Davis (00:00.558)
Hi, I'm Lisa Davis. So glad you're listening to Health Power. You can watch clips from every episode by going to my Instagram, my TikTok, and my ex, formerly known as Twitter, at Lisa Davis MPH. So if you want to check me out, check out my guests, see what we're doing beyond just listening to us, that is an option for you. As well as I have a YouTube page now, if you look up Lisa Davis MPH.
All right, today we're going to be talking about an article from NaturallySavvy .com. There's a new nut in town, Peely Nuts. When I hear there's a new nut in town, I think of that song by the Eagles. There's a new kid in town. Hi, everybody's talking. So there's a new nut in town, Peely or Piley. I don't know. P -I -L -I Nuts. Let's jump into this dense superfood and find out about it. Okay. So it is also known as Canary and it is the product of a tropical evergreen tree.

The tear shaped nuts are about 1 .6 to 2 .8 inches long and each end of the nut is pointed, one being less pointy than the other. That's really interesting. So each kernel is composed of approximately 8 % carbohydrate, 11 .5 to 13. % protein and 70 % fat. Now, if you listen to the show, you know, I'm a big fan of healthy fats. Peeling nut trees are found throughout Malaysia, Indonesia and the Philippines. And the nuts are harvested from natural strands of the trees in the mountains.

These nuts are popular for their taste and nutrition as well as their oil, which can be used for making soaps and cosmetics. That sounds fantastic. So what do the nuts taste like? Raw peely nuts are said to taste similar to sunflower seeds, while others say they're closer to macadamia nuts or even a combination of all types of nuts together. When you roast them, they have a chewy exterior and a buttery interior. Okay, that really sounds delicious. So what are some of the health benefits?
All right, they're high in nutrition. They are reportedly a complete protein, which means they contain all the essential amino acids you need. That's incredible. They are high in calories, coming in at 650 calories per cup. However, eating just a few of these nutrient -dense nuts slowly will satisfy your hunger and give you a nutritional boost as well. In fact, peeling nuts contain the most magnesium of all nuts.
Lisa Davis (02:19.086)
A single serving completes your daily dose of copper and manganese as well. That's pretty cool. Ooh, anti -inflammatory properties. There's a lot of focus on the impact of inflammation on health today. We talk a lot about it here on Health Power. And these nuts are up to the challenge. Peeles contain many antioxidant compounds, including vitamin E to fight inflammation at all levels in the body. They can lower cholesterol. Oh, that's so interesting. So they have omega -3 fatty acids, which are super important.
They help our skin, they help our hair, but they also help balance cholesterol levels, especially lowering bad cholesterol, LDL. They aid in anti -aging. Now I don't like the word anti -aging. I would just say they help in aging. So the botanical antioxidants in peeling this, are your friends when it comes to aging powers and helping you stay looking the way you'd like as well? Well, you know, that's a whole nother conversation. Including these KC morsels in your diet can help fight free radicals and promote.
wrinkles and other signs of aging. Oh, that promote wrinkles. Promote better sleep. Magnesium is a mineral known for its ability to support sleep and the release of relaxing hormones. I gotta get my hand on these because I am sensitive to most nuts. So I need to, or actually just not all nuts, not seeds, but I don't like seeds as much, but I'm gonna give this a try because if this tastes anything like a macadamia nut, I am on board. Wow, there is so much these nuts do.
They support your bone health. Your bones need more calcium to stay strong and peeling nuts provide several of...
