Unsalted nuts and seeds
Almonds, walnuts, pecans, and pistachios are all examples of nuts. They provide a crunchy texture with plant-based protein in each mouthful. Individuals who ate nuts on a daily basis had a decreased risk of heart disease and stroke, according to recent research.
When you’re restricted to unsalted and raw nut types, go for it. If giving up salted nuts is too difficult, consider making your own combination of half salted nuts and half unprocessed nuts to reduce salt while still getting a great taste.
Walnuts, for example, contain omega-3 fatty acids that can benefit your heart and should be included in your trail mix.
