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)
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)
