Hazel Nuts

Hazelnuts, also known as filberts, are nuts produced by the hazeltree and are characterized by their rich, buttery flavour. Hazelnuts are a nutrient-dense food, providing healthy fats (including monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats), protein, dietary fibre, vitamins (such as vitamin E), and minerals (including magnesium and copper). Hazelnuts are associated with various health benefits, including heart health support due to their favourable fat profile. They also contribute to antioxidant defence, help regulate blood sugar levels, and support digestive health.
