Nutrition
We hear it all the time, "Macadamias have too much fat to be healthy." Unfortunately, that's wrong. Not all fats are bad . . . and health is not judged by fats alone.
The good news is that macadamias are filled with the good fats. Monounsaturated fat has been shown to lower cholesterol levels and help the body burn fat more easily. Macadamia oil, for instance, has around an 85% monounsaturated fat content (that's very high).
Macadamia nuts tend to be a more filling snack, so eating just a few can curb your snacking more efficiently than something high in sugar.
