Description
Pistacia vera (Pistachio, 2n = 30) belongs to the Eudicots clade, Sapindales order, and Anacardiaceae family and is a member of the cashew family originating from Central Asia and the Middle East. Pistachios are a moderate source (10–19% DV) of calcium, riboflavin, vitamin B5, folate, vitamin E, and vitamin K. Pistachios, as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease.
