Dry Roasted Pistachio Nuts (with Salt Added) (100 G)

Keep the pistachio portion modest—about a small handful (roughly 1 ounce/28 g)—and avoid eating repeatedly from the bag.

Eat pistachios as part of a balanced meal or snack with protein and fiber, such as plain Greek yogurt, eggs, tofu, or non-starchy vegetables.

Avoid pairing them with rapidly absorbed carbohydrates such as sweet drinks, candy, crackers, or dried fruit; if adding fruit, choose a small serving of berries.

Choose unsalted or lightly salted dry-roasted pistachios when possible, since salt does not reduce the glucose rise and may make it easier to snack past your planned portion.

Have the pistachios after a meal rather than on an empty stomach if you notice a larger rise when eating them alone.

Take an easy 10–15 minute walk after the snack or meal, if appropriate for you, to help limit the post-meal rise.
