Almonds are a popular nut that can be eaten plain as a snack or seasoned by roasting with Salt, but are Almonds safe to eat on the Paleo diet? In this post we will explore if it is safe to eat Almonds while on Paleo without breaking your diet!
Yes – Almonds are safe to eat on the Paleo diet!
Why Are Almonds Paleo Safe?
Almonds are safe to eat on the Paleo diet because they are a nut that was available for humans to eat during the Paleolithic era. During this time we were focused on hunting and forging nuts like Almonds and Peanuts instead of farming grains. Almonds have been available for humans to eat for thousands of years – all the way back to the Paleo era.
One important thing to remember is that only natural, unroasted, or dry roasted Almonds meet Paleo standards. If the nuts are covered in Salt or other flavorings it will break your Paleo diet.
Our Final Say
Almonds are a tasty snack that is approved to eat on Paleo as long as you don’t add too much extra salt or seasonings.
