Product Review

Brazil nuts come entirely from wild collection rather than from plantations. Therefore, all Brazil Nuts are organic by nature. Nutritionally, Brazil nuts are a good source of some vitamins and minerals. A cup (133 grams) of Brazil nuts contains the vitamins thiamin (0.8 mg-55% DV) and vitamin E (7.6 mg-38% DV); minerals calcium (213 mg-21% DV), magnesium (500 mg-125% DV), phosphorus (946 mg-96% DV), copper (2.3 mg-116% DV), and manganese (1.6 mg-81%). Brazil nuts are perhaps the richest dietary source of selenium; 28 g (1 oz, 6-8 nuts) can contain as much as 544 µg. This is 10 times the adult U.S.
