Company Brief

Bangalore, August 5, 2011

It is difficult to keep a check on calories and eat healthy around festivals when temptations are high. Wonderful® Pistachios offers guilt free gift options in convenient sizes to cement this bond of love in a healthy way. Raksha Bandhan symbolizes sister's love and prayers for her brother's well-being, and brother's lifelong vow to protect her and what better than a gift of health and taste to celebrate the occasion.

Catering to the growing demand of healthy alternatives which has replaced traditional sweets as a gift, Wonderful® Pistachios provides you the opportunity to show you care for your sibling’s health and well-being. Wonderful® Pistachios are the totally natural, guilt free snack. Roasted to perfection with just a touch of salt, 100% California grown Wonderful® Pistachios are great for everyday snacking.

One of the lowest calorie, lowest fat nuts, Wonderful® Pistachios are a sensible snack that can help keep cravings in check and prevent overeating during meals and festive occasions. A handful of these California pistachios – about 30 –are a sensible snack choice for only 100 calories. They serve as a ‘mindful’ gift for health conscious consumers or those who are trying to lose weight.

New research shows that pistachios provide a significant improvement in lipid profiles, which may do wonders for the waistline and also reduce risk for heart disease. A few ounces of California pistachios a day can lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and boost HDL (good) cholesterol. Due to their unique nutrient composition, they are considered to be one of most nutrient rich snack nuts. Naturally nutritious and crunchy, in-shell pistachios provide many nutrients that typically lack in a diet, including fiber, vitamin E, and potassium.
