There are several kinds of peanuts in different parts of the world and each one has its own unique properties but why Jungle peanut is the healthiest?
Jungle peanut has existed for many years in Ecuadorian Amazon.
There is one tribe that has put its effort to grow this nut over the years which is called Shuar.
Thanks to this tribe, now we have the chance to taste this nut.
Commercial peanuts used in today's market originate from Jungle peanuts and are different in appearance.
Jungle peanuts have a unique look to them compared to other types of peanuts.
This aromatic legume has brown stripes on them which make them look like coffee beans a little.
They are grown in the rainforest in Amazon.
These two are the main reasons why this nut is the healthiest compared to its other counterparts.
Firstly, Wild Jungle peanuts do not have any aflatoxin (a fungal that causes peanut allergies and cancer) because they are grown in a natural environment rather than a single-crop farm.
This fungal exists in other kinds of peanuts and it cannot be killed even by heat.
Secondly, Jungle peanuts are grown in a soil that is full of nutrients which makes them a perfect seedbed.
This nut contains 30 percent protein, Vitamin E, C and B, all 9 kinds of amino acid, phosphorus and magnesium.
Jungle Peanut Butter
The Incas and Ecuadorian Amazon Indians utilized the initial peanuts to produce peanut butter hundreds of years ago.
When this manufactured product got popular in America, everybody loved it since it had an exceptional taste, it was highly nutritious and it was sold at a very low cost.
Having aflatoxin, peanut butter caused allergies and it still does.
The allergic reactions include rashes, itching, swelling and sometimes it can lead to death.
But Jungle peanut butter doesn't contain this toxin, therefore when you consume it, you do not have to worry about allergic reactions or any harm to your body.
You can eat it as a super healthy food for breakfast.
Unfortunately, there aren't many places that grow Jungle peanuts and they are rare.
Some people grow them in their own homes and gardens to take care of their health and their family's.
Regular peanuts are mostly used in the market for domestic use since they are widely grown in almost 108 countries.
Wild Peanut lant
These peanuts are sowed in America less than other types of peanuts.
Valencia peanut is grown in New Mexico and is known as the sweetest peanut and has the least aflatoxin (a toxin produced by a fungal found on different crops).
Having a sweet taste and the least amount of aflatoxin, Valencia peanut is mostly used in peanut butter.
Each shell has 3 or more kernels.
A wild peanut is grown in Argentina in hot weather and according to historical records, this plant has existed for more than 7000 years.
In southern parts of America continent wild peanut existed in their paintings and any other kind of art.
The story behind how this plant spread all over the world is very interesting.
Europeans pioneered in many discoveries from discovering plants to discovering planets.
One of these discoveries is peanut.
When they found peanut in South America, they took it to Europe and introduced it to people there.
The traders that came to Europe, grew to like this nut so they took it to other lands to sell them.
The reason why there are so many other kinds of peanuts out there is that they grew in different lands and day by day their genes changed and a new type of peanut came to life.
All these changes caused peanuts to be larger than their original ancestors.
Wild peanut plants are still popular and many people would like to grow them in their own gardens.
