Pistachios are indigenous to Central Asia. They were first cultivated in Turkey, Iran, Lebanon, and Syria.

What Are The Benefits Of Pistachios?

1. May Aid Weight Loss

Pistachios contain fiber. Studies show that fiber intake may promote satiety and, in turn, help with weight loss (2). Another nutrient with similar qualities is protein, which can reduce hunger pangs (3).

Pistachios are dried fruits. Studies have demonstrated that consuming them can keep inches off your waist over time (4). The nuts also have beneficial effects on triglycerides. They can be consumed as a healthy snack to lose weight, without having to worry about their fat content (5).

According to a study, the lipid content in pistachios are not fully absorbed by the body. This reduces the body’s fat content (6).

In another study, people who ate in-shell pistachios consumed less calories than those who ate shelled pistachios (7).

2. May Enhance Gut Health

The fiber in pistachios aids digestion and prevents constipation (8).

The gut bacteria ferment this fiber and produce short-chain fatty acids, which have several benefits. They help in colon cancer prevention and improve overall digestive health. Butyrate is one such beneficial short-chain fatty acid, and its consumption increases the number of good bacteria in the gut (9).

3. May Improve Heart Health

Research has shown that pistachios may help prevent heart ailments by increasing the levels of heart-healthy fats. They can also lower bad cholesterol and reduce the risk of coronary heart disease (10).

Pistachios lower the levels of lipoproteins, which are a risk factor for heart disease (11). Diets containing these nuts were also found to lower blood pressure levels (12). The nuts contain arginine, an amino acid. Arginine was also found to lower blood pressure (13).

4. May Aid Diabetes Treatment

Glucose levels were found to be lower with pistachio consumption (14). The nuts also increase the levels of peptide 1, a hormone that regulates glucose levels in those with diabetes (15). Thus, it helps in blood sugar control.

An Iranian study also states that the dietary intake of pistachio nuts can have positive effects on glycemic control, blood pressure, inflammation, and obesity in individuals with diabetes (14).

Did You Know?

Pistachio is known as the Smiling Nut in Iran and the Happy Nut in China.

5. May Be Beneficial During Pregnancy And Breastfeeding

Pistachios offer a healthy dose of several nutrients that are important during pregnancy. Studies show that diets including these nuts can be of help during this period (16).

Pistachios may also benefit breastfeeding mothers due to their nutritions provided by it. They are also easy to be included in the diet. Busy nursing mothers can simply snack on pistachios as they are.

6. May Combat Inflammation

The bioactives present in pistachios may help fight inflammation. These anti-inflammatory properties can be put to therapeutic use (17). Pistachios are also rich in monounsaturated fats. Some believe these may also help combat inflammation,  though more research is warranted in this aspect (18).

7. May Improve Vision Health

Pistachios are a rich source of lutein and zeaxanthin (19). Lutein and zeaxanthin are found in the human retina. Consuming enough of these antioxidants prevents vision issues like age-related macular degenerationi  An eye disorder where a part of the retina is affected, impairing central vision and making it difficult to perform daily activities. and cataractsi  The gradual development of blurry vision as the eye's naturally clear lens becomes clouded, interfering with daily activities. (20).

Pistachios are also rich in zinc (1). A deficiency of the mineral has been linked to poor night vision (21).

The healthy fatty acids in pistachios may also contribute to eye health. However, we need more research to substantiate this.

8. May Boost Cognitive Function

Pistachios, like most nuts, are good sources of vitamin E (1). In rat studies, the nutrient was found to decrease the risk of peripheral neurotoxicityi  Damage to peripheral nerves (present away from the brain and spinal cord) resulting in weakness, numbness, and pain in the extremities. (22).

Ripe pistachio shells were found to alleviate anxiety in rats (23). The nuts may also enhance cognitive performance, learning, information retention, and rapid eye movementi  A stage of sleep where the eyes move quickly and randomly, characterized by the occurrence of more vivid dreams. during sleep. However, sufficient data is lacking in this regard.

Some anecdotal evidence suggests that pistachio nut oil may also fight brain inflammation and preserve the essential fatty acids in the brain.

Pistachios may also have a role to play in protecting brain function from the potential disruptions caused by anticancer drugs (24).

Did You Know?

Pistachios are the original prehistoric snacks. In fact, they are one of the only two nuts mentioned in the Bible.

10. May Enhance Sexual Health

Anecdotal evidence suggests that pistachios may boost fertility. However, we need more research in this regard.

Studies show that pistachios can act as an aphrodisiac. Eating a handful of the nuts every day for three weeks was found to improve sex drive in men. The arginine, phytosterol, and antioxidants in the nuts have shown to help treat erectile dysfunction (25).

11. May Increase Estrogen Levels

Pistachios have the highest amount of phytoestrogens amongst nuts (26). They may increase estrogen levels and contribute to a regulated menstrual cycle and secondary sex characteristics.

12. May Slow Down Premature Aging

Pistachios contain vitamin E. The vitamin prevents chronic UV photoaging of the skin (27).  The nuts also contain copper. The nutrient aids the production of elastin, which prevents the formation of wrinkles and treats sagging skin (28). Thus, it can be said that pistachios ultimately promote skin health.

In a study, mice treated with vitamin E showed fewer signs of UV-induced skin damage (29). Pine nuts are another nutritious option, offering benefits for both skin and hair.

These are the health benefits of pistachios. While we saw some of the nutrients the nuts contain, there are other important compounds that are responsible for the benefits. In the following section, we will look at the nutritional profile of pistachios.
