Whole Almonds Unsalted
by B J Originals
These almonds are compromised by seed oils (canola, cottonseed) that increase inflammation and oxidative stress. While almonds are nutritious, the processing oils significantly diminish the health value.
- Almonds – beneficial · Nutrient-dense tree nuts rich in vitamin E, magnesium, healthy fats, protein and fiber that support heart health and blood sugar control.
- Peanut oil – controversial · High in omega-6 fatty acids which can promote inflammation when consumed in excess, though more stable than other seed oils.
- Canola oil – controversial · Highly processed seed oil that undergoes chemical extraction and deodorization, contributing to inflammation and oxidative stress.
- Cottonseed oil – dangerous · Industrial byproduct oil high in pesticide residues and inflammatory compounds, linked to reproductive and cardiovascular issues.
