They are native to North America and Mexico. They were known to the Native Americans, but in their language the word "pecan" means something difficult to crush. These nuts are oval in shape, wavy, and their outer shell is a slightly shiny brown. Pecans are among the most caloric, but also the healthiest nuts. They contain vitamins C, E, K, and B1. They are rich in minerals such as phosphorus, zinc, magnesium, iron, potassium, and manganese.
