Dry fruits especially pista. Increase a body weight.

Question

Hello-
Pistachios have a high fat content. A 1-ounce serving contains 13 grams of total fat. Being high in fat, however, does not necessarily make a food fattening. The overall number of calories you consume per day is more important. When you eat more calories than you burn, your body stores those extra calories as fat. It doesn't matter if they came from fat, protein or carbohydrates. An ounce of pistachios contains 157 calories -- unlikely to cause weight gain if your overall calorie intake is appropriate. However, eating an entire cup, which contains nearly 700 calories, increases your chances of gaining fat. Moderation is the key to eating pistachios without gaining weight.
