Cashews Can Possibly Cause Cancer or Death
Many cashew nuts contain a toxic compound known as aflatoxin. This poisonous compound can cause liver damage and cancer, according to sources.
Cornell University’s Department of Animal Science website reports that the aflatoxin in cashews may result in nausea and vomiting, stomach pain, convulsions as well coma and death. Hence, why people die each year from certain nut allergies.
