New product
Pistachio nuts are typical of the sicilian culinary tradition, even though their origins are Middle-Eastern. Sicilian pistachios are particularly appreciated thanks to their delicate taste and significant size. Not only have these fragrant nuts many good qualities from a gastronomic point of view, but they are also an appreciable natural help against high colestherol and cardiovascular diseases: they mainly contain monounsaturated fats which help reducing "bad" colestherol". In addition, pistachios possess polyphenols with antioxidative effects and they can help to alleviate inflammations and fight bacteria and fungus.
