Peanuts in Winter? Beware! Not for Everyone, Experts Warn

• Peanuts can trigger severe allergic reactions like itching, rashes, swelling, and breathing difficulties in sensitive individuals.
• Young children are at risk of choking and allergies, while the elderly may face digestive issues, gas, and stomach pain.
• Those with existing digestive problems (gas, acidity, constipation) should limit peanuts due to their heavy nature, which slows digestion.
• High calorie and fat content in peanuts can lead to rapid weight gain, especially for individuals managing obesity or with reduced winter activity.
• Peanuts can worsen skin conditions (acne, boils) due to increased body heat and may unbalance blood sugar for diabetic patients.

Why It Matters: Despite being healthy, peanuts can be problematic for allergy sufferers, children, elderly, and those with specific health conditions.
