Definitely eat them, they are a great source of healthy fats. Just peel the skin because the skin can block nutrient absorption.

Soaked almonds are great, but make sure to peel the skin. Also, do keep up with your regular thyroid tests and consult your doctor for your diet plan.

It's usually safe, but check with your doctor if you have had digestive complications. Always peel them and don't eat too many at once.

My doctor said soaked almonds are rich in vitamin E and riboflavin. Soaking them releases enzyme inhibitors, making them much easier to digest during pregnancy.

They are safe and highly nutritious, but please be gentle on your tummy. I was very cautious after my loss and only took 4 daily after asking my doctor.
