Organic Activated cashew kernels

Cashews are related to mango and the fruits of the cashew tree that is native to North Brazil. As the first Europeans, Portuguese once discovered the cashew tree and gave the kernels the name "caju", because of their kidney shape. Cashews are rich in the essential amino acid tryptophan which is required for the production of the "mood hormone" serotonin. About 70% of the total fat content consist of oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid that also appears abundantly in olive oil. Outstanding is the concentration of protein which is why cashew kernels serve as a source of protein. ACTINUTS™ CASHEWS PUR are 100% organic cashew kernels without taste additives.
