Arey chill, peanuts are totally fine to eat! Just don't overdo it because they can cause heat, but a small bowl of roasted singdana is absolutely yummy and healthy.

They are actually very good because they provide natural fats and protein. Just make sure to eat them roasted or boiled, and avoid the heavy salted store-bought packets.
