Groundnut, commonly known as peanut, is a legume that is widely grown for its edible seeds. These small, oval-shaped seeds are rich in nutrients and are consumed in various forms around the world. Groundnuts are highly nutritious and are a good source of protein, healthy fats, dietary fiber, vitamins (especially vitamin E and several B vitamins), and essential minerals like magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and zinc. They are also rich in antioxidants, such as resveratrol, and phytochemicals.
