Considered to be the world's most delicious nuts, macadamias are small, crispy buttery flavored powerhouses full of good fats, protein, vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants. Yes, these babies are very high in fats, but their fat profile balances our essential fatty acids to provide a nice mixture of both omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. These fats also increase the production of protective high density lipoproteins (HDL cholesterol) while suppressing the unhealthy low density lipoproteins (LDL cholesterol).
