Enjoy them salted and unsalted or get creative and add your own flavors to our raw Walnut Creek Peanuts
They are naturally sweeter peanuts with thinner shells which allows flavors in boiling water or brines to get through the shell more easily.
Minerals: A cup of raw peanuts offers 58 percent of the DRI for magnesium, 44 percent for phosphorous, 43 percent for zinc, 37 percent for iron, 22 percent for potassium and 10 percent for calcium. These minerals aid in bone and tooth health, muscle contraction, blood clotting, metabolism and immune function. They also reduce the risk of certain cancers, Type 2 diabetes and heart disease.
Vitamins: A 1-cup serving of raw peanuts supplies 110 percent of the dietary reference intake for niacin, 88 percent for folate, 81 percent for vitamin E, 78 percent for thiamine, 30 percent for vitamin B-6 and 15 percent for riboflavin. These vitamins help protect the levels of vitamins A and C in the body, regulate appetite, maintain healthy digestion and metabolism and aid in skin, vision and neurological health.
Healthy Fats: Fat constitutes 78 percent of the calories in raw peanuts, but only 19 percent of that fat comes from saturated fat, while the other 81 percent comes from monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Saturated fat raises cholesterol levels and contributes to Type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease, but unsaturated fats work in reverse, actually lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk of Type 2 diabetes and coronary artery disease.
