Almond Butter

Almond butter is an ideal source of protein and healthy fats. Protein is crucial for tissue regeneration and repair. Eating protein through almond butter is especially good for athletes and sports enthusiasts as protein takes longer to digest and therefore provides a more steady source of slow-release energy during training and workouts. Almonds have been found to be particularly helpful at preventing the development of cardiovascular diseases. The protein and fat content in almond butter makes it a great option for post-workout and recovery. Almonds are rich polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. These nuts support heart health and muscle function. They are also high in vitamin E, magnesium, calcium and copper.
