Roasted Peanuts

Description

And while peanuts aren’t technically nuts, they share many of the same nutritional benefits and occupy the same “niche” in your diet. Snacking on dry-roasted peanuts can help you feel satisfied between meals, and you’ll get some nutrients, like iron, that will help sustain your energy levels.
One of peanuts’ biggest nutritional benefits is their protein content. Protein supplies amino acids: compounds that your body uses to maintain healthy muscle, a robust immune system and strong and elastic skin and hair. It’s also relatively slow to digest (compared to carbohydrates) to keep you full longer after you eat, so you aren’t tempted to go back for more snacks before your next meal. Protein also has a high thermic effect — which means it burns more calories during digestion than fat or carbs — so it will slightly boost your calorie burn for the day.
