| | Nut (fruit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A nut in botany is a simple dry fruit with one seed (rarely two) in which the ovary wall becomes very hard (stony or woody) at maturity, and where the seed remains unattached or unfused with the ovary wall. | | | A nut is a compound ovary that is both the seed and the fruit, which cannot be separated. | | | Allergy to peanuts is the most common; some evidence suggests that peanut allergy may be related to the use of peanuts in baby foods; if given to very young children who are not yet able to digest all the components of peanuts fully, the body will then react against those components. |

| | These critics of the entire betel-nut industry find a measure of common ground with some in the women's-rights movement in that they see the position of betel-nut beauties as a form of sexual exploitation that may lead to other forms of vice, such as prostitution. | | | Their task is to take a betel nut, wrap it with some paste in a leaf and pack half a dozen nuts into a boxes. | | | Because such is the competition to sell the nuts among what is estimated to be 100,000 vending outlets around the island that some of the girls have all but dispensed with clothes altogether. |

| | NUT [nut] in botany, a dry one-seeded fruit which is indehiscent (i.e., does not split open along a definite seam at maturity). | | | Thus the peanut pod is actually a legume, the Brazil nut is a seed enclosed with others in a capsule, and the almond is part of a drupe, a type of fruit that includes olives and peaches. | | | Nuts may have be high in fat, but there are many benefits as well. |

| | The government has banned the sale of betel nuts, the precious fruit of the trees, in much of Yangon, the national capital. | | | To the uninitiated, few non-violent sights are as disturbing as the blood-red remains of a betel nut, which look for all the world like the consequence of some life-and-death struggle. | | | Chewers of betel nut, of course, spit often, spreading all manner of germs including those that cause a particularly nasty strain of tuberculosis. |

| | These extraordinary nuts are shaped like triangular orange segments, are extremely hard, and are found in clusters of 12 to 24 inside a 4" to 6" pod that resembles a coconut (a botanical definition of a nut is a fruit with a hard, dry shell that needs to be cracked open to release the kernel). | | | While it is preferable not to subject them to extremes in heat, Brazil nuts are very hard, and some people find it easier to crack them open after they have been frozen, steamed, or boiled for a few minutes. | | | Brazil nuts are also a source of arginine (an amino acid that plays a role in blood clot formation) and flavonoids--important antioxidant compounds believed to be protective against both coronary disease and cancer. |
