This is about the food, not the comic strip/cartoon.
So lately I've been snacking on peanuts and mixed nuts (unsalted). I was always told they are a very healthy snack and good for your heart. However, I noticed they seem to be pretty high in calories and fat.
Just 29 pieces of mixed nuts (unsalted) is 170 calories, 15g of fat and 2g of saturated fat. I'm a big time calorie counter so this is strange to me.
I understand they probably aren't meant to be eaten hundreds at a time but now I'm curious...
What is so healthy about nuts?

They have good fats in them Sounds homo, but nuts are good. I can eat handfuls.

Not sure if they're good for you but peanuts are damn good. Not in chocolate though.

I am more of a fan of honey roasted peanuts. Give me that and a bottle of water, and I'm good. As for the health benefits, I have no idea why.

I hate nuts with a passion. They stink like crap and taste even worse.
My brother loves them though, and he says they're healthy because they're packed full of Protein, Fibre and contain the fats that are good for your teeth, hair and fingernails.
They don't contain the really bad fats, but you still have to be careful with them because obviously fat has to be eaten in moderation.

The peanut isn't a nut, so you're all wrong. It's a legume. But to answer the question, both the cholesterol and fat are good fats. Your body needs to burn those to give you energy. They're also a source for protein, which helps rebuild muscle.

I don't really care for any type of nut unless it is covered with chocolate or on top of ice cream..
