Brazil nuts

Brazil nuts grow in the Amazon on trees up to 50 m tall, bearing fruits resembling coconuts. Brazil nuts are hidden in a woody shell in bunches of huge capsules. They are the richest source of selenium, which helps protect cells, boosts the immune system's antibody activity, and even reduces the risk of bladder and prostate cancer. Two nuts will provide us with more than our daily need for selenium. They also contain a large amount of vitamin E, a significant percentage of minerals and omega-6 fatty acids, which reduce inflammation and improve the quality of the skin. Eating raw brazil nuts is the healthiest.
