Almonds² vs Potato Chips³

Potato chips are a classic example of a highly processed snack that does not offer many beneficial nutrients. Not only are snack almonds heart healthy¹ and contain better for you unsaturated fats, they are also a good source of dietary fiber. Peanuts tend to be an easy snack to grab on the go, but did you know that almonds are higher in Vitamin E, Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) and Magnesium and have less sodium and saturated fat than peanuts?
