Pecans provide the body with zinc, vitamin E, calcium and potassium. They are loaded with fiber and antioxidants. They can boost the immune system, help to lower blood pressure and are good for the heart. They are an important part of any healthy diet and can help to create a balanced, weight-control meal plan. Even more importantly, they taste great. The pecan tree is the state tree of Texas, chosen nearly 100 years ago. The trees grow up to as much as 100 feet tall and can produce nuts for hundreds of years. Each mature tree can produce as much as 50 pounds of nuts every year. The United States produces 80 percent of the pecans consumed around the world. Pecans are found in hundreds of varieties and require a long, warm season to grow appropriately.
