According to a Youtube channel called “Talon Fitness”, with a video called “The most NUTritious”, Almonds have a high amount of Vitamin E.
Yet, most brands containing Almonds, say their Nutritional Facts don’t even have any. Which is true?
How does Talon Fitness get his info?
Are Nutrition Facts a lie?
This isn’t even about Almonds, by the way.
Of course, almonds contain vitamin E, according to NCBI, almonds are good source of protein, dietary fiber, and vitamin E, in fact if you are consuming almonds then it increases the intake of MUFA (monosaturated fatty acid), PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acid).
I think https://www.myfooddata.com/ is a good tool. You can look up any food there, and they will list all nutrients.
It says that one serving size of 23 almonds contain 7.3 mg vitamin E:

Important to know is that heating up /roasting nuts can cause a loss of vitamin E, so try to eat them raw..
A quick google search will tell you they contain vitamin E. Most micronutrients aren’t listed on food labels. Therefore you have to do the research and find out for yourself. Sadly the FDA doesn’t care about our health.
No, sometimes foods just don’t contain EVERYTHING in the nutrition facts and some do. There might be a minimum to the required facts on the label. Usually, if something is promoted as a health food they will be more detailed with the nutrition label.
