Another trip to the grocery store. What’s next on the list? Trail mix? Is trail mix even healthy? We know, you have so many questions.
But we can let you in on a little secret: L’Orenta Nuts has got the best nut mixes for healthy snacks.
Best Nuts For You
Our Healthy Harvest mix is a satisfying blend of natural cashews, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and raisins. This mix is a perfect sweet and savory snack to fill you up for those long road trips, picnics and even longer work days. With no added salt, this mix is so wholesome that it makes a great snack for the kiddos, too!
Still not convinced? Try our almonds:
Almonds have about 6 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber – more than most other tree nuts. They are also a good source of vitamin E, copper, and magnesium. Almonds also take home the trophy for highest in calcium – 75 mg per ounce, to be exact.
Have you considered pumpkin seeds?
Pumpkin seeds also have a ton of benefits to them, as well. Did you know that pumpkin seeds are a natural source of carbohydrates, amino acids, and unsaturated fatty acids? They also contain vitamins B, C, D, E, K and minerals such as calcium, potassium and phosphorous.
Like pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds also have some life-altering benefits that most people don’t know about. Sunflower seeds are a great source of fatty acids, vitamins E, B1, B6 and minerals like calcium, iron, manganese, zinc, magnesium, selenium and copper, which all play a vital role in bone mineralization, red blood cell production, enzyme secretion, hormone production, as well as regulation of cardiac and skeletal muscle activities.
L’Orenta Nuts has plenty of other healthy snacks like the Decadent Dream Mix, which contains milk chocolate covered almonds, yogurt clusters, fruit and berries and a variety of nuts.
The next time your kiddo puts trail mix on your shopping list, keep L’Orenta Nuts in mind. To check out more healthy snacks like the few mentioned above, visit our store and place your order today!
