A handful of peanuts, let's calculate together, what is the difference in energy between raw and cooked

Nuts are a huge variety and are our favorite snack, especially with kids and ladies.

In nutrition, in order to facilitate memory and calculation, nuts and some seeds are classified into a category, called nut seeds. Their nutritional value is relatively close, and nuts are basically plant seeds, but some are slightly larger and have a hard shell on the outside, so they are called nuts.

Nuts are divided into two categories: tree nuts and herb nuts. Common tree nuts are walnuts, pistachios, hazelnuts, cashews, torreya nuts, pine nuts, ginkgo biloba, chestnuts, almonds, walnuts, figs, jujubes, macadamia nuts, and macadamia nuts. and many more.

Herb nuts are seeds, and there are many, such as pumpkin seeds, watermelon seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, lotus seeds, peanuts, etc.

Why is the nutritional value of nuts and seeds so high, let's think about animals, aren't plant seeds equivalent to animal embryos? The nutrition must be both rich and comprehensive, otherwise, how can a small seed give birth to a towering tree?

The nutritional value of nuts is vividly known as "the treasure of health", "the fruit of beauty", "the fruit of longevity", "the fruit of anti-cancer" and so on.

A handful of sunflower seeds and a spoonful of oil: extremely high fat content

Nuts are high-energy foods with a fat content of about 40%, and pine nuts, almonds, hazelnuts, and sunflower seeds are more than 50%.

However, most of the fats in nuts are monounsaturated fatty acids, which are very high-quality fats and provide us with most of our daily edible oils, such as rapeseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, etc.

high protein content

The protein content of nuts is generally high, about 12-22%, of which watermelon seeds and pumpkin seeds are as high as 30%.

The protein content of rice and flour that we cannot do without is only 7-12%, and the protein content of animal food is generally 12-20%.

And most of the protein in nuts is high-quality protein, and the essential amino acids are complete.

Rich in vitamin E, B vitamins and minerals

Nuts are particularly rich in vitamin E, including vitamin B1, vitamin B2, folic acid, niacin, and less vitamin C.

It is also rich in minerals such as potassium, magnesium, iron, phosphorus, calcium, zinc, and selenium.

In addition to peanut oil, peanuts are a kind of herbal nut that we often eat. They are eaten raw with shells, boiled with shells, eaten raw after shelling, cooked after shelling, roasted with shells, and fried after shelling. ...a variety of ways to eat.

The highest energy is the peeled peanuts fried or fried. It is a good dish to drink, but the energy is very high.

Let's calculate, the energy of 100 grams (two taels) of raw peanuts is about 550 kcal, which is equivalent to 5 bowls of rice. After frying or frying, add 50 grams (one tael) of vegetable oil, and the productivity coefficient of fat is 9 , 50? 9 = 450 kcal.

That is, two taels of fried or fried peanuts, the total energy value is: 550 kg + 450 kcal = 1000 kcal, which is roughly half of the energy value an adult needs in a day.

After I was done, I felt terrible.

It's just a plate of fried peanuts, half the amount of energy an adult needs for a whole day.

How many people gain weight, just because they can't count!
