Cashew Dip Recipe
Native to Brazil’s Amazon, the “Cashew” nut is packed with energy, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins that are essential for robust health. It contains healthy monounsaturated fat that helps to reduce high triglyceride levels, promoting good cardiovascular health. Among others, it is rich in minerals like magnesium, potassium, zinc and selenium that support healthy muscles and bones in the body, provide antioxidant support and deliver co-factor assistance in various important enzymatic functions. It is also a storehouse of many B complex vitamins that are essential for optimum metabolism of proteins, fats and carbohydrates.
