  • About
Aren’t nuts and seeds high in fat and calories?

Yes, about 75–85 percent of the calories in nuts and 55–75 percent of the calories in seeds are from fat. They provide 500–800 calories per cup (250 ml)! So although they’re valuable foods, they should be eaten in small amounts, not by the bowlful.

Are nuts and seeds OK for people with diabetes?
Absolutely! In fact they’re more than OK—they’re important. Among all the plant-based foods, nuts have the least impact on blood sugar. In addition, they deliver essential nutrients, fiber, phytochemicals, and antioxidants.
