The triangular “seed” of the wild Brazil nut tree, which grows up to 45 m high, has a considerable fat content (over 60%).
Para nuts are very popular for nut mixes and trail mixes and as a baking ingredient for desserts such as brownies and cakes due to their many positive properties.
Para nuts should preferably be stored in a cool, dry place and consumed quickly. Due to their natural radium and selenium content, no more than 1-2 Brazil nuts per day should be consumed.
