product description
The product Almond Flour of NOW Real Food is an almond flour of organic origin, unbleached, low in carbohydrates and sugars. In addition, this nutritious flour it is not skimmed, which makes it an excellent source of essential fatty acids.
Almonds are rich in fiber, protein and monounsaturated fatty acids, similar to the same type of fatty acids found in olive oil. Monounsaturated fatty acids help regulate blood sugar and insulin levels, while contributing to feelings of satiety. In addition, they reduce the risk of heart disease. Researchers have found that replacing an equivalent percentage of carbohydrates with almonds in an average diet reduces the risk of heart disease by 30%. This ability may be due, in part, to the antioxidant activity of vitamin E and the beneficial effect of monounsaturated fatty acids in reducing "bad" cholesterol (LDL): 1/4 cup of almonds contains about 99 mg magnesium and 257 mg potassium.
Almond flour adds color, rich texture and flavor to baked foods as well as everyday meals. In addition, it can be mixed with other flours in pastry recipes. Does not contain gluten!
* Keep in the refrigerator after opening the package.
