One of the oldest tree species in Central and Western Asia is the pistachio tree. Research indicates that pistachios have been grown and consumed over 7,000 years.

A nut with a high nutritional density is the pistachio. They are quite filling to eat since they have a wonderful creamy flavour with a hint of Vitamin E and lutein, two naturally occurring antioxidants, may both be found in abundance in pistachios.

Consuming pistachios on a regular basis helps slow down the ageing process by scavenging dangerous free radicals, repairing cells, and enhancing cell vitality.

Additionally, pistachios have the greatest phytosterol concentration of any dry fruit. Reducing blood lipids is a significant benefit of phytosterol.

Pistachios are therefore referred to as the "guardian of the heart," and frequent pistachio consumption can lower the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Pistachio nuts weigh roughly 0.7g and have 4 calories per kernel. Avoid overindulging in pistachios. Simply eat 15 pistachios per day.
