WHY IT'S KETO-FRIENDLY

  • Low net carbs (~4–5g/100g) fit strict keto macros
  • Very high fat (predominantly monounsaturated) supports ketosis
  • Naturally satiating—tiny servings curb hunger
  • Extremely nutrient-dense; a few nuts deliver meaningful micronutrients
  • Portable, no-prep snack or crunchy topper
  • Works well as a garnish to boost fat without adding many carbs

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

SMALL DAILY PORTION

Have 1–3 nuts as a concentrated micronutrient ‘supplement’ rather than a handful snack.

BRAZIL NUT BUTTER

Blend roasted nuts with a pinch of salt for a rich, selenium-packed nut butter (use by the teaspoon).

TRAIL MIX COMPONENT

Combine a few Brazil nuts with Macadamia Nuts and Pecans for a premium keto trail mix.

ROASTED SEASONED

Lightly roast with sea salt and rosemary for a fragrant, savory bite.

SALAD TOPPING

Rough-chop 1–2 nuts over leafy greens with Olive Oil vinaigrette for crunch and micronutrients.
