Pecans
Imported to the UK year-round, pecans are typically harvested in warmer climates during autumn. These buttery nuts are an excellent source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and powerful antioxidants like zinc and manganese. They support immune function and metabolic health, providing a nutrient-dense boost to your diet in any season.
