Nuts can be seeds/fruits/legumes with a hard shell.(Eg.cashews,almonds,walnuts,peanuts,etc)
Dry Fruits however are essentially dried versions of actual fruits once the water in them has dried up(dates,raisins,figs,cranberries,etc)#NutsVsDryFruits #Facts #healthysnacks #diet(1/3) ImageImage
Although nuts and dried fruits both are storehouses of nutrients but at the same time are calorie dense. A limited intake of dried fruits ( 10-15 gms ) and nuts ( 25-30gms) per day is generally recommended. #NutsVsDryFruits #Facts #healthysnacks #diettips ( 2/3)
Those aiming #weightloss, patients with #diabetes,heart ailments,high TG,edema and PCOS, Nuts are advised but restricted on dried fruits as they are high in sugar content.#diettip #facts #NutsVsDryFruits
Nuts also should not be coated with salt or sugar or jaggery or honey , to be a healthy snack option in the diet of patients with diabetes,insulin resistance,high triglycerides,etc.#diettips #HealthyDiets #health
