Almonds and Health

Soaking almonds can significantly improve our health because it allows us to remove the brown skin, which contains tannin and other antinutrients such as phytic acid, which inhibit the absorption of nutrients.

When almonds are soaked, the skin comes off easily, allowing the seed to release all the nutrients easily.

In addition, the soaking process significantly reduces the concentration of antinutrients such as phytic acid, improving the availability of minerals such as calcium, iron, zinc and magnesium for our body.

Soaked almonds are also easier to digest and can improve the flavor, making them sweeter and less bitter.

Soaked almonds are rich in vitamin E, one of the most important antioxidants present in nature, which helps to counteract the activity of free radicals by protecting lipid membranes and slowing down the cellular aging process.

In addition, almonds contain unsaturated fats, such as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated, including omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, which are important for arterial and heart health.

In short, soaking almonds is not just a culinary practice, but a healthy method to improve their digestibility and nutritional properties.
