Depends just how much peanuts you eat,Squirrel?? Peanuts are 6.3 gm per 25 gm which equates to 25.2 per 100gm which is high!! Personally i do not eat them I stick to Macadamias ,almonds ,pistachios etc.

Hi squirrel,

Nuts are very good for diabetics - full of essential oils, protein, vitamins and minerals.

BUT peanuts are not nuts. Like cashew nuts they are a member of the pea family and not good for diabetics. Best leave them for the real squirrels to enjoy!
