If you were to pluck them <strong>raw directly from the plant, they would taste similar to peas.<\/strong> However, commonly found in stores are roasted or salted peanuts, which alter their taste into the form we enjoy crunching on while watching a movie in the evening, for example, in the form of peanut puffs.&nbsp;<mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1279529996-1124x749.jpg\" alt=\"Peanuts are the fruit of the oilseed plant (Arachis hypogaea).\" class=\"wp-image-537767\" title=\"Peanuts are the fruit of the oilseed plant (Arachis hypogaea).\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1279529996-1124x749.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1279529996-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1279529996.jpg 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Health_benefits_of_peanuts\"><\/span>Health benefits of peanuts<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/peanuts-unroasted-gymbeam.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>Peanuts<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;are known not only for their great taste but also for their <strong>positive effects on our health.<\/strong> That&#8217;s why you hear so much praise in this regard. It&#8217;s likely that you&#8217;ve heard about their <strong>impact on heart health, cognitive functions, blood sugar levels,<\/strong> and their potential association with lower rates of certain types of cancer. Below, we&#8217;ll delve into these and other benefits supported by scientific studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\" id=\"weight-loss\">1. A handy aid in weight loss<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Peanuts are rich in fats, proteins, and fibre. The fat itself is digested more slowly by our bodies, and along with it, digestion of other foods also slows down. This keeps food in the stomach longer, helping to delay the onset of stomach rumbling and feelings of hunger in general. Fats, along with proteins and fibre, also give peanuts leverage to <strong>not only help you combat hunger but also induce a greater sense of satiety.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>This is precisely what fits into a diet as one of the pieces of the puzzle leading to weight loss or weight maintenance. It works thanks to proteins, which <strong>have a positive impact on ghrelin and leptin, the hunger and satiety hormones.<\/strong> These hormones send signals to your brain about how hungry or full you feel. Proteins, in fact, have <strong>the highest satiating capacity of all macronutrients.&nbsp;<\/strong><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[16 \u2013 27]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, it must be noted that peanuts are quite calorie-dense foods, so their intake needs to be controlled. In 100 grams, there are approximately <strong>591 kcal, which is equivalent to a substantial meal.<\/strong> Therefore, it will be much wiser to indulge in a smaller portion within your meal plan or diet. Peanuts are not a magical solution that will take your weight loss to a new level.

Positive impact on heart health<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In connection with healthy fats, peanuts, similar to nuts, are beneficial for heart health. They contain <a class=\"ek-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/fats-which-are-bad-and-which-are-good\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids<\/strong><\/a>, which have a <strong>positive impact on cholesterol.<\/strong> Additionally, they contain various other nutrients such as antioxidants or vitamin B1, also known as thiamine, which <strong>contributes to the proper functioning of the heart.<\/strong> The impact of peanuts on heart health have also been examined by various studies. They indicate that consuming peanuts twice a week was <strong>associated with a 13 to 19% lower overall risk of cardiovascular diseases and a 15 to 23% lower risk of ischemic heart disease.&nbsp;<\/strong><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[4]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Peanuts are also associated with heart health due to their content of resveratrol, which belongs to antioxidants. A French study from 2016 suggests that resveratrol has a positive effect on <strong>inflammation in vascular endothelium and its function.<\/strong> Moreover, an increased concentration of resveratrol has been linked to a <strong>reduction in the oxidation of LDL cholesterol,<\/strong> whose high levels are associated with atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and coronary artery disease.&nbsp;<mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[5]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\" id=\"blood-sugar-levels\">3. Aid in blood sugar levels management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Peanuts can be an excellent aid for people with diabetes. They belong <strong>to foods with a low glycemic index (GI)<\/strong>. There&#8217;s a mechanism called GI scale and any food that gets the GI rating in the range of 1-55 is considered to have low GI. Peanuts have a GI value of 15, making them one of the best in this regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>They can thus help <strong>better control blood sugar levels because they have a relatively low carbohydrate content and a high content of fats, proteins, and fibre.<\/strong> Digestion and absorption of proteins take longer than carbohydrates, which is also facilitated by the presence of fibre. Thanks to fibre, energy can be released more steadily without major fluctuations. Therefore, peanuts can shine as a great component of complex meals, helping to reduce their overall GI.&nbsp;<mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[6 \u2013 7]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1124\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.sk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1085308942-1124x749.jpg\" alt=\"Peanuts belong to foods with a low glycemic index.\" class=\"wp-image-537826\" title=\"Peanuts belong to foods with a low glycemic index.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1085308942-1124x749.jpg 1124w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1085308942-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/iStock-1085308942.jpg 1254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1124px) 100vw, 1124px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\" id=\"risk-of-developing-certain-types-of-cancer\">4.

Specifically, we can mention <strong>phytosterols,<\/strong> which, according to one study, were associated with a <strong>reduction in prostate tumor growth by more than 40%.<\/strong> Additionally, a positive effect on reducing the <strong>incidence of cancer spreading to other parts of the body by almost 50% was observed. <\/strong><mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[1]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Phytosterols are also associated with a positive impact or <strong>inhibitory effect on lung and stomach cancer, as well as ovarian and breast cancer.<\/strong> Resveratrol may also be interesting in this regard, as according to a study by German authors, it can <strong>limit blood supply to growing tumors or cancer cells.<\/strong> However, the mentioned studies are limited, and more research is still needed for a better understanding of the relationship between peanuts and different types of cancer.&nbsp;<mark class=\"has-inline-color has-orange-color\" style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\"><sup>[1, 8 \u2013 9, 32]<\/sup><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading is-style-h3\" id=\"gallstones\">5. Potential positive impact on gallstones<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Gallstones are solid formations of varying sizes that typically form in the gallbladder and bile ducts. They develop from deposits of bile, which over time solidify and form objects roughly resembling the stones from Thanos&#8217;s Infinity Gauntlet. While they often don&#8217;t cause any problems, they won&#8217;t give you control over the entire universe either. <strong>In some cases, they can lead to inflammation of the gallbladder or biliary colic,<\/strong> which is sudden and intense abdominal pain lasting usually for one or several hours.
