NOW Foods Raw Energy Nut Mix is an unsalted blend of raisins, walnuts, pecans, almonds, pumpkin seeds and cashews designed as a convenient, iron-containing snack to help sustain energy between meals.

Simple, minimally processed, and ready to eat, this 16-ounce pack from NOW Foods combines natural dried fruit with raw tree nuts and seeds for balanced texture and flavor. With no added oils or salts, the mix preserves the inherent tastes of each ingredient while providing roughly 4 grams of protein per serving and a notable source of iron. It’s portion-ready for on-the-go snacking, salad toppers, or quick baking additions.

What’s inside the mix and why these ingredients?

The blend pairs chewy raisins with crunchy walnuts, pecans, almonds, pumpkin seeds and cashews to create a mix of textures and complementary flavors. Each component brings different nutrients—healthy fats from nuts, minerals from seeds, and natural sugars from raisins—making the blend a practical pantry staple.

• Raisins: natural sweetness and quick carbohydrates.
• Walnuts & pecans: rich, crunchy texture and heart-healthy fats.
• Almonds & cashews: creamy crunch with protein and minerals.
• Pumpkin seeds: concentrated source of iron and zinc.

How can I use this nut mix in daily meals or snacks?

The mix is versatile—eat it straight from the bag, sprinkle it on yogurt or oatmeal, fold it into homemade granola, or use it as a salad or grain bowl topper. Its unsalted profile makes it compatible with both sweet and savory applications.

• Snack: 1/4 cup portion for a quick pick-me-up.
• Breakfast: stir into cereal, porridge, or smoothie bowls.
• Baking: fold into muffins, cookies, or energy bars.
• Meals: sprinkle over salads, roasted vegetables, or grain salads.

What nutritional details should I expect per serving?

A standard serving is 1/4 cup (about 38 g) and supplies around 4 grams of protein with a notable contribution of iron from the pumpkin seeds and nuts. Because the mix is unsalted and contains no added oils, sodium and added fat remain minimal compared with roasted or candied alternatives.

• Serving size: 1/4 cup (38 g); roughly 12 servings per 16-oz container.
• Protein: roughly 4 g per serving.
• Salt: no added salt—low sodium option.
• Processing: raw, no added oils or sugars beyond the raisins’ natural sugars.

How should I store it and how long will it stay fresh?

Keep the product in a cool, dry pantry away from direct sunlight; reseal the bag tightly after each use or transfer contents to an airtight container to preserve crunch and freshness. Stored properly, the mix maintains quality for several months, but check the packaging for the best-by date.

• Storage: resealable bag or airtight container recommended.
• Temperature: cool, dry environment—avoid heat and humidity.
• Shelf life: follow best-by date on package for peak freshness.

Who is this for? NOW Foods Raw Energy Nut Mix suits active people, busy professionals, students, and anyone seeking a simple, unsalted snack option with a mix of textures and plant-based nutrients.
