What Are Tiger Nuts And Why Should You Eat Them?

I talked about the nutritional benefits of Tiger Nuts in this piece for Forbes:

“Tiger nuts are lauded for their high resistant starch fiber content,” says Maya Feller, registered dietitian nutritionist and founder of Maya Feller Nutrition. “Resistant starch fibers are loved for their prebiotic capacity. These fibers pass through the GI undigested and are thought to reduce blood sugar spikes and aid in satiety,” explains the Brooklyn-based nutritionist.

In addition, they are “a good source of plant-based protein, poly and monounsaturated fats, magnesium, calcium, vitamins C and E,” adds Feller. Plus, they’re gluten-free and dairy-free, making it a great option for those on Vegan or Paleo diet.
