Macadamia Nuts Benefits

  • Macadamia nuts are rich in monosaturated fats, mostly oleic acids, which contribute to heart health by reducing LDL cholesterol levels (bad cholesterols) and increasing HDL cholesterol levels (good cholesterol).
  • Monosaturated fats can also help support brain health, such as cognitive function and can potentially boost your mood.
  • They also contain fibers which are important for digestive health, promoting regular bowel movements and gut microbiome health.
  • Studies suggest the fats and antioxidants also support in anti-inflammation across the body, promoting more overall health.
  • Macadamia nuts are full of other nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, protein, copper and iodine.

Macadamia nuts are native to Australia. The macadamia nut trees are mostly found in the rainforests of eastern Australia and it was named after John Macadam whom promoted the cultivation of the macadamia nut tree in Australia.
