Pistachio nuts, kernel only, roasted and salted

Pistachio nuts are edible seeds, and the figures here describe roasted and salted kernels with the shells removed. Per 100g, they provide 55g of fat, 18g of protein, 7.4g of fibre and 1.3g of salt. Fat is their main source of energy, and they also provide vitamins and minerals.

Protein supports the maintenance and repair of body tissues, while fibre helps support normal bowel function. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Their high fat content also contributes to their energy content, which may be relevant when monitoring energy intake. Full nutritional figures are in the tables below.
