Health benefits of cashew butter.
Cashew butter contains proteins, vitamins, and unsaturated fats which are known to build up the immune system, nervous system, maintain cells health, increase muscle, and skin tone.
They contain lots of essential amino acids and have proven to work wonders for individuals on high protein and low carbohydrate diet. It contains no cholesterol and sodium but it is loaded with phosphorus, copper, iron, magnesium, and selenium (which is essential for the human body as it prevents cell and DNA membrane damage from free radicals).
The high level of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats in cashew butter has proven to decrease cholesterol levels and visibly reduced the risk of developing a heart condition.
The high amount of magnesium in cashew butter aids the maintenance of heartbeats and blood pressure levels. The amount of unsaturated fats in cashew butter has proven to be optimum for low-fat diets, as they lower high triglyceride.
