Dietary Nickel in Nuts and Legumes

According to the Acu-Cell Nutrition database, nuts and legumes are among the richest dietary sources of nickel.

Primary Food Groups and Sources

  • Legumes: Soybeans, lentils, dried beans, chickpeas, and peanuts contain exceptionally high levels of nickel.
  • Nuts & Seeds: Walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds, sunflower seeds, and flaxseeds are significant contributors of dietary nickel.
  • Whole Grains & Cocoa: While outside the nut and legume category, oatmeal, buckwheat, and chocolate/cocoa also fall into the high-nickel classification often associated with this dietary profile.

Health Considerations

  • Sensitivity & Toxicity: For individuals with systemic nickel allergy (contact dermatitis) or nickel hypersensitivity, high-nickel foods from the legume and nut groups can trigger flare-ups.
  • Mineral Interactions: High intake of nickel can competitively interfere with the absorption and utilization of essential trace minerals, particularly iron, zinc, and copper.
