For the first time, a team of researchers has analyzed the nutritional composition of raw cashew nuts from the largest growing regions around the world, providing a much better approximation of the real nutrient content of cashews.
Cashew nut supplementation in Asian Indians with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) reduced systolic blood pressure and increased HDL “good” cholesterol concentrations, according to a recent study published in The Journal of Nutrition.
The 4th World Cashew Convention and Exhibition took place in Macau, China, on February 1-3, 2018, in association with the INC.
