Why You May Want To Think Twice Before Eating Macadamia Nuts

When you're reaching for a mid-day snack that's both tasty and healthy, you can't go wrong with nuts, right? Not so fast. While it's true that most nuts are going to be healthier for you than most chips or other snack food, that doesn't mean you can just go wild in the nut aisle of your local grocery store. Macadamia nuts in particular have a surprisingly high calorie count to balance out their health benefits, and it only gets worse if they've been roasted or otherwise flavored. Here's why you may want to think twice before eating macadamia nuts.

1. food calories are bullshit. (calorie isn't a calorie, it is what is in the calorie) 2. fat hatred is bullshit. (non-omega 6 fats are completely healthy) So what is there to hate? "Oh there might be stuff added!" And not with other foods and nuts? Don't buy shit food with lots of other stuff in them. For the record, Macadamias have the best fat ratio of all the nuts in terms of Omega 6 and Omega 3. Yes they are high fat, but that is a good thing. Of course don't eat them all the time, but the fact is that the nature of the nut is that it makes you feel full anyway.

Macademias are one of those nuts lowest in oxalates compared to cashews and almonds, making them good for those who worry about kidney stones. I buy roasted macademia butter with no salt or butter.

@coenraed Жыл бұрын

old comment I know, but if you're paranoid about kidney stones, you can pretty much negate the effect of high oxalate foods by eating them together with a source of calcium. The calcium oxalate that would normally form in your kidneys will then precipitate in your stomach before the oxalate has a chance to be absorbed.

@valeriereneeharper Күн бұрын

@@sgill4833 technically that is caused by an excess of calcium in the blood. You need vitamin d to get the calcium absorbed into your arteries and you need vitamin k2 to get that calcium from the blood into the bones. So actually, without vitamin k2, vitamin d can cause all that calcium in your blood to calcify so too much vitamin d and not enough vitamin k2 can actually be way more dangerous

I have my own tree. We call the nuts "Queensland Nuts" or if you live in a town or village near Bundaberg the nuts are described as the place from where they came. Forget Hawaiian nuts, we have them in Australia, but we don't market them as well as the Hawaiians. As for shelling them, you need a big hammer or a brick to break them open on a hard surface. Be careful not to whack to heavily or you'll squash the kernels (or maybe your fingers).

They just shit this video out macadamia nuts saying that they are high in calories and that’s bad. But not all calories are equal. 200 calories of sugar is very bad and very fattening but 200 calories of unsaturated fat is fine and not fattening. So it better to not pay attention to the exact number of calories but rather where those calories are coming from. But eat in moderation.

As a trucker who is doing low-carb, I've been ultra-impressed with macadamias. I bought a little pouch of them, thinking I'd blitz them in a day. They were the only snack I ate ALL last week, and I still have 1/3rd of that pouch left. It only takes like 6 nuts to be full for hours. It's outrageous. Yesterday, a little handful easily took me from Boise to Pendleton with no hunger at all. I could annihilate 2 party-size bags of Cheetos in that distance and still feel hungry. Calories are not all built alike.
