Ingredients
- in the shell (150g) Pistachios — One of the few nuts with meaningful lutein and zeaxanthin in it. Studies on shell-on versus shelled consistently find people eat fewer calories from the shell-on version, and the pile of empties is most of the reason.
- a pinch (2g) Sea Salt — Only if they are unsalted to begin with.
