Brazil Nuts – Health Benefits

Brazil Nuts are on the top of my love-of-raw-nuts list! These satisfying nuts are high in Selenium which helps to fight muscle weakness & fatigue – 2 things a Fit Girl ain’t go no time for!  Selenium also works to boost thyroid function – even the most minor cases of hypothyroidism can make you feel depressed, sluggish & completely unmotivated to get up and take on  the world. To name a few more positives about these delicious babies:

– lower cholesterol
– promote a healthy heart
– high in Zinc
– free radical fighting antioxidants

I enjoy 1 or 2, raw, unsalted Brazil nuts several times a week, which is all you need to soak up the health benefits from these good-for-you nuts!
