Pistachio nuts contain a lot of phosphorus. Phosphorus is a mineral that is present in the body and occurs in food in the form of phosphate. Together with calcium, phosphate ensures strong bones and teeth. Phosphate also influences the metabolism and all kinds of enzyme processes in the body.
Pistachio nuts are seen as a healthy snack and are rich in nutrients and minerals. For more specific information we refer you to the Nutrition Guide.

Natural nuts are unroasted nuts. Natural nuts are delicious for stir-frying or for use in recipes and in muesli. However, the natural nuts are chewier than roasted nuts. For that reason, roasted nuts are often (not always) considered tastier.

The main producing countries are the USA and Iran, but in recent years Greece and Turkey have also been supplying pistachio nuts on a large scale.

The pistachio is a small tree from the cashew family. The pistachio originally comes from Asia, but nowadays it is widely grown in Europe for its edible, green seeds. The word pistachio comes from the Persian pista.
