Because, it’s my 1st time, I started with 3 pieces, but I ended up eating three more before I seal the bag and put it away. But of course, beginning tomorrow, I’ll be doing the 3 a day recommended amount. Thank you. Bow!

    I was eating a lot. Let's be honest they are good. And I bought straight from Bolivia. Basically I could live eating nuts. What doctor said is true I did not do resarch but I overdose them:)
    Anyway normal food you can overdose and consequences are not as bad as overdosing synthetic substances. I do not say it's good but it's wider comfort zone to eat a pound of brazil nuts daily than to overdose just selenium or just calcium and so on.

    Phytic acid is known as an “anti-nutrient”. Most nuts contain more phytic acid than grains and legumes. This can be problematic for some because phytic acid binds to minerals and essential nutrients, inhibiting absorption. It binds to selenium, zinc, iron, magnesium, calcium, chromium, manganese, and copper.

      You’re assuming Brazil nuts is your only source of the other things mentioned. Which it (hopefully) isn’t. It’s like saying the protein in potatoes doesn’t matter because if you only eat potatoes you probably won’t get enough protein. Most people eat other foods and they all add up.
