Crack Open a Smile: Celebrate National Pistachio Day with 99th Monkey's Nutty Goodness!

February 26th isn't just another day on the calendar; it's a day dedicated to the vibrant emerald gem of the nut world – the pistachio! This National Pistachio Day, let's crack open a smile and celebrate the deliciousness and health benefits of this unique nut, especially when it's combined with its creamy counterpart, almond, in our very own 99th Monkey Pistachio & Almond Butter.

Pistachios: The Tiny Powerhouse of Health

Beyond their vibrant colour and satisfying crunch, pistachios pack a powerful punch when it comes to nutrition. Here's why they deserve a spot in your diet:

• Nutrient-Dense: Packed with protein, fibre, healthy fats, and essential vitamins and minerals like iron, potassium, and magnesium, pistachios support various bodily functions and keep you feeling energised.
• Heart-Healthy: The healthy fats in pistachios, particularly monounsaturated fats, contribute to lowering bad cholesterol and improving heart health.
• Antioxidant Powerhouse: Rich in antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, pistachios help protect your cells from damage and promote overall health.
• Weight Management: The combination of protein and fibre in pistachios keeps you feeling fuller for longer, aiding in weight management.
• Happy Nut, Happy You: Did you know pistachios are nicknamed the "happy nut"? They contain vitamin B6, phosphorus, and thiamin, which contribute to brain function, mood regulation, and overall well-being.
