I was in hospital after having suffered a miscarriage. My iron level in the blood was so low, at around 7 grams per deciliter. Normal levels are above 12. The doctor advised me to eat raw pistachio nuts. He specified to eat only raw and not roasted nuts, and so I did. I ate around a 1 kilo of nuts and at the end of the day I made it my job to finish the whole lot, as I desperately wanted to leave the hospital. The next day, my iron level was raised to above 10 grams per deciliter! The doctors couldn’t believe it, and they sent me home!

I was very weak and faint for some weeks. I went for a blood check and found out my iron level was quite low. The doctor prescribed iron tablets, which I had to take once a day. I went to a friend and she suggested to me that I eat two tablespoons of Max Sesame Tahini and also 1 tablespoon of pistachio butter, as well as my iron tablets, so I thought I would try that. After another couple of weeks I went for a check-up. My iron levels were so high, the doctor asked me the secret. I told him, “As well as my iron tablets, I’m eating pre-sprouted, raw Max Sesame Tahini and pistachio butter.” I came off the iron tablets and now just continue with the tahini and pistachio butter. My iron levels are back to normal now!

I had my blood sugar measured, and it was rather high, unfortunately. My doctor advised me to go on a low sugar diet, and also to eat pistachio nuts with a carbohydrate-rich meal such as pistachio nut butter on toast. Since pistachios have a low glycemic index, this would reduce my risk of getting diabetes. I tried Field of Nuts pistachio butter and after a few weeks went by, my next check-up showed a reduction in blood sugar levels, so I was very happy.
