Why Pista Is a Smart Snack
Pistachios are the snacker's nut. They are one of the lowest calorie nuts, they are high in protein, and because you have to open the shells, you naturally eat slower and less. That combination makes pista a genuinely good choice when you are trying to snack without overdoing it.

The Benefits
Good for weight control. Fewer calories than most nuts, plus protein and fibre that keep you full. The shells slow you down, so you snack mindfully.
Heart health. The unsaturated fats and potassium help support healthy cholesterol and blood pressure.
Eye health. Pista is one of the few nuts with lutein and zeaxanthin, the same antioxidants linked to protecting your eyes.
Steady energy and gut health. Protein and fibre together give lasting energy and feed good gut bacteria.
How Many Pistachios a Day
A small handful, around 20 to 30 pistachios (roughly 30g), is a sensible daily amount. Pick unsalted where you can so you are not loading up on sodium.
