3124 Almond Kernels 500g Almonds are a healthy snack and add nutritional value to all sorts of other dishes. In fact, did you know that, ounce for ounce, almonds are the most nutritionally dense nut? Yep. A one-ounce serving (about a handful) of almonds is an excellent source of vitamin E and magnesium, and a good source of protein and fiber. A serving of almonds also contains heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, potassium, calcium, phosphorous and iron. The almond, which we think of as a nut, is actually the seed of the fruit from the almond tree. The almond is related to the peach, but the fruit toughens into a leathery coat, called the hull, which contains the shell and the edible kernel. Unlike the peach pit, the almond kernel is not only edible, but also quite nutritious.
