Hazelnuts

Today's mass-produced snack foods put consumers at risk for all types of health issues, such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and all of the complications that come with obesity. What's really unfortunate is that nature already provides snack foods that won't cause adverse human health conditions, but instead helps to cure them - and one of nature’s most beloved snack foods is the hazelnut. Food to Live carries premium quality hazelnuts, in both organic and conventional versions.

The hazelnut, or filbert, is one of the most delicious and nutritious morsels offered by nature. They are an extremely versatile nut that contains significant amounts of fiber, manganese, phosphorus, vitamins B1, B2, C, and E, folate, copper, and iron, and are low in cholesterol and sodium.
