PINE SEED BIO BULK 12.5Kg
The ancient Greeks and Romans considered the pine nut a symbol of masculinity and fertility due to its great nutritional value. It is a fruit that is easily collected and cultivated since we get it from the ripe pine nuts that fall from the tree. Pine seeds are eaten raw or roasted. They are rich in minerals and trace elements, such as iron, manganese, phosphorus and zinc. They are also rich in proteins, as 100 gr. pine nuts offer 31g of protein.
It helps with weight loss, while also having other therapeutic properties. It is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, essential for the cardiovascular system. Finally, the zinc it contains is useful for the immune system, a property that the ancient Greeks seem to have known, as well as for the reproductive system. Pine nuts are ideal for stuffing, while they acquire an excellent flavor when roasted.
