Tree nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, pecans) provide significant health benefits. In addition to good fats, they contain high quantities of vitamins, minerals and fiber. The Food Guys recommend eating a quarter cup of tree nuts each day, but they also recognize that prices can fluctuate depending on the environmental conditions and global market.
