Best High Protein Nuts

People are always looking for new and more effective weight loss diets. One of the most important tactics you can employ is to include high-protein foods in your diet. In short, eating nuts is a great way to more easily achieve a high protein low fat diet to trigger weight loss.
But nuts alone won’t do the trick. It’s important that eating nuts as snacks is incorporated into a diet plan. Eating a handful of nuts as a snack and before meals can help you feel full and satisfied more quickly, so you can eat less of other higher calorie foods and still feel full!

Most people wanting to lose weight are advised to eat mostly meaty meals to get the protein they need. But this may not be possible for the vegetarians, and as much as i love meat, sometimes you just want something different. Eating the same thing over and over can get monotonous. The good news is that meat is not the only rich source of protein; there are also many other fruits, nuts & vegetables that can fulfill the daily protein requirement of such a diet.

There are many nuts that are rich in proteins.

But Nuts are high in fat right… so i shouldn’t eat them?
Wrong. Nuts are high in fat… The good fats that actually help lower cholesterol. Also its these good fats that help you feel full and satiated.

We discuss some high protein nuts that can become a part of your daily diet to augment your daily protein requirements:

1. Cashews: Dry-roasted cashews are high in proteins and also have one of the lowest fat contents of all nuts.
2. Peanuts: Roasted peanuts not only taste delicious but also act as vital protein supplements for your body. With 7.95 grams of protein per ounce, they are an ideal snack when you are on a mission to lose weight.
3. Almonds: Almonds are one of the best sources of proteins; they contain almost 6 grams of protein per ounce. So a small helping of almonds is ideal if you want to lose weight.
4. Pistachios: Dry roasted pistachios contain almost 6.05 grams of protein per ounce. You will also need to shell them before eating, so you will also be able to burn a few calories while you are eating this snack.

Other nuts like walnuts and hazelnuts also are very rich in protein. So really you have a wide variety that you can choose from. There’s no reason to stick to the same variety of nut, try some and find which ones you like best.
Remember that eating nuts can be addicting. Instead of eating just a handful, it is very easy to go on & finish the whole bag. So if you are serious about shedding those extra pounds, it is better to keep temptation away. Make small packets of nuts and eat one at a time.
