Surprisingly, peanuts are not actually in the nut family. They are classified as legumes along with foods like green peas, soybeans, and lentils. Despite belief, peanuts have many of the same health benefits as the more expensive nuts such as almonds, cashews and walnuts, and should not be overlooked as a nutritious food.
Peanuts are rich in proteins, good fat, and fiber. They are also an excellent source of magnesium, folate, vitamin E, Biotin, antioxidants, copper and arginine. Roasted peanuts are great for heart health, weight loss, extending your life span, lowering your risk of diabetes, reducing inflammation, protecting you from gallstones, preventing cancer and an improved sex drive especially in men.
