Almond

Raw and roasted almonds are the healthiest option and freshest in the summer as they are high in protein and low in fat. They have many other health benefits too.

Almonds are loaded with a variety of vitamins and minerals that assist in men's health and promote sexual hormones. They enhance testosterone levels, and also provide health and monounsaturated fats.

There is no set number of almonds that a person can eat. However almonds are high in protein, fiber, calcium, vitamin E, riboflavin and niacin and may have adverse effect if taken in large quantities. Ideally most doctors recommend having not more 10 almonds on a daily basis.

To maximize the benefits from almonds, it is recommended to consume them in the morning as it helps to boosts your metabolism, regulates your blood sugar, and also keeps you satiated.

Good quality raw whole almonds can be identified from their high crunchiness, hardness, and cohesiveness; while good quality dry-roasted almonds can be identified from their harder, crispier, crunchier nature.
