Why Hazelnuts?

Hazelnuts are one of nature's most versatile nuts, equally at home in a snack mix, a spread, or a holiday dessert. Beyond their rich, toasty flavor, they pack in nutrients and health benefits that make them an easy addition to a healthy diet.

  • Support heart health.

    Eating hazelnuts as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may help reduce the risk of heart disease.

  • Deliver antioxidants that support circulation.

    Hazelnuts have the highest proanthocyanidin content of any tree nut, compounds that may help reduce blood clotting and lower the risk of urinary tract infections.

  • Support iron absorption and bone health.

    One serving supplies over 25% of your daily copper and more than 90% of your daily manganese.

  • Provide folate for cardiovascular and prenatal health.

    Hazelnuts rank #1 among tree nuts for folate, a nutrient linked to reduced risk of birth defects, cardiovascular disease and depression.

  • Aid digestion and help lower cholesterol.

    An ounce of hazelnuts has 2.7 grams of dietary fiber, a nutrient tied to healthy digestion and cholesterol management.

  • Protect cells with vitamin E.

    A one-ounce serving contains 20% of your daily recommended vitamin E, an antioxidant that supports cell health.

Sustainability

Hazelnuts aren't just good for you, they're good for the land, too.

  • Uses less water than annual crops.

    Hazelnut trees are drought-resistant thanks to deep, established root systems.

  • Protects soil from erosion.

    Since hazelnuts don't require yearly tilling, soil stays in place and retains more organic matter over time.

  • Buffers streams and waterways.

    Hazelnut orchards are recognized as a riparian buffer zone crop, helping filter runoff before it reaches nearby water.

  • Pulls carbon from the air.

    Their extensive root systems and long growing season help hazelnut orchards sequester more carbon than annual crops.

  • Produces for decades from the same orchard.

    As a perennial crop, hazelnut trees keep bearing nuts for generations without needing to be replanted each year.
