How to consume dry fruits

WE HAVE BEEN relying upon dry fruits and nuts across generations to help us get through the harsh winter months. They are not just a staple of traditional diets during this season but have also been valued for their therapeutic properties and potential to boost our overall well-being. While they are rich in nutrients, overeating them can lead to a range of health issues, especially at this time of the year. What's also important is to know how to consume them. Here are some important facts that you can keep in mind to make these humble foods your ultimate winter wellness allies...

Winter superfoods

Fiona Sampat, clinical dietitian, Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai, lists out some of the common dry fruits and nuts available in the country and how they are beneficial during the winter months:

ALMONDS: Almonds are among the world's most popular tree nuts. They are a good source of healthy fats, protein, and fibre, which provide sustained energy and prevent energy crashes. Consuming almonds as a snack in winter can help maintain energy levels throughout the day, reducing fatigue and improving overall productivity. Almonds contain high levels of vitamin E, potassium, calcium, phosphorus, and other minerals.

WALNUTS: Walnuts are a great source of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), an omega-3 fatty acid that is important for reducing inflammation. In fact, it is the only nut significantly high in omega-3 fatty acids. These omega-3 fatty acids contribute to improved cognitive function, memory, and mental well-being. This is important during winters when you may experience less natural sunlight, which can impact overall brain health.
