"The California salted pista are absolutely perfect for movie nights. Crunchy, lightly salted, and so fresh you can taste the green. My kids are obsessed."
"Irani pista has a completely different depth of flavour — more intense, slightly smokier. These are the real deal. Perfect with chai in the evenings."
"I bought the shelled natural pistachios for baking and garnishing. Vibrant green colour, no broken pieces, and they toast up beautifully. Professional quality."
"My whole family fights over the last pistachios in the bowl. These California ones are large, perfectly roasted, and the salt level is spot on — not overdone."
"The shelled pistachios are a game-changer for my smoothie bowls. Gorgeous green colour, mild nutty flavour, and no shells to deal with. Worth every rupee."
"I have been gifting the Irani pista during Diwali for two years now. Recipients always comment on the quality. It has become my signature gift."

Pistachios are rich in protein, fibre, healthy fats, and antioxidants. They support heart health, aid weight management, and provide lutein for eye health. They have fewer calories per nut than most tree nuts. Browse our California and Irani pista range.
A healthy daily portion is 30-40 pistachios (about 30g or one handful). This provides adequate protein, fibre, and healthy fats. Pistachios are one of the lowest-calorie nuts, making them ideal for controlled snacking.
Pistachios are naturally mild, but many are dry-roasted with salt for a savoury flavour. The saltiness comes from the roasting process, not the nut itself. SeedToSoul offers both salted (for snacking) and natural/shelled (for cooking and health-focused eating) options.
California pistachios are larger, lighter green, and milder in flavour — great for snacking. Irani pistachios are smaller, more intensely flavoured, and slightly saltier — traditionally preferred in Indian households. Both are equally nutritious.
Yes — pistachios are one of the best nuts for weight management. They have fewer calories per nut than most alternatives. The act of shelling naturally slows eating. Also great for weight-conscious snacking: makhana and peanuts.
A 30g serving of pistachios (about 49 nuts) contains approximately 160 calories, with 6g protein, 3g fibre, and 13g healthy fats. This makes them one of the lowest-calorie nuts available. Shelled pistachios tend to lead to higher consumption, so in-shell options help with portion control.
Yes — pistachios have a low glycemic index and are rich in fibre, protein, and healthy fats that help regulate blood sugar. Studies show that eating pistachios with high-carb meals can reduce the overall glycemic response. A handful (30g) daily is a smart snacking choice for blood sugar management.
Yes — pistachios are safe and nutritious during pregnancy. They provide protein, fibre, folate, iron, and potassium. Also recommended during pregnancy: walnuts (omega-3 for brain development), dates (natural energy), and anjeer (iron).
Per 100g, pistachios provide 562 calories, 20g protein, 28g carbohydrates, 10g fibre, and 45g fat (mostly healthy monounsaturated). They are rich in vitamin B6, thiamine, copper, manganese, and phosphorus. Pistachios also contain lutein and zeaxanthin for eye health.
Lightly salted pistachios are fine in moderation. For daily health-conscious eating, choose natural or lightly salted options. For more snacking variety, try our flavoured makhana or roasted cashews.
