Nuts can be a great addition to just about anyones diet. Just a few points to add to this graphic: peanuts are often contaminated with aflatoxin, a potent human carcinogen, so it’s a good idea to try almond or some other kind of nut butter. If you add some salt to sunflower seed butter it tastes similar to peanut butter. Also unfortunately, nuts, seeds (and grains, if you’re using the nut butter on bread) all have phytic acid, which is becoming more and more of a problem for people health-wise. Soaking the seeds, nuts and grains will help get rid of phytic acid.
