Almond vs Pistachio
Difference in calories is 40, pistachio being lower. Almonds & Sunflowers are excellent sources of Vitamin B6! More to come...

    I don't think pistachio calories are lower. You may be looking at the calories for pistachios in shell. I think almonds are the lowest calorie nuts.

    Different foods offer a wide range of nutrients, and we need them all. A narrow view of nutrition is counterproductive if the goal is good health.

    I eat nuts because of the taste. I prefer Brazil, macadamia and walnuts over both almond and pistachio.
