Mbeu za mpendadzuwa ndi chipatso cha chomera chokongola cha mpendadzuwa chomwe chimachokera kumpoto kwa Africa. Mbewuzo zimakhala zolimba komanso zimakoma pang'ono. Iwo anali chakudya chofunika kwambiri kwa Amwenye aku America. Mbeu za mpendadzuwa zimakhalabe zotchuka mpaka lero, ngakhale kuti nthawi zambiri zimadyedwa ngati chotupitsa kuposa ngati gawo la mbale. Ndipo ngakhale mbewu za mpendadzuwa sizikhala ndi michere yambiri ngati mbewu za chia kapena hemp, zimakhala zathanzi kwambiri. Mbeu za mpendadzuwa ndizomwe zimapatsa mphamvu zachilengedwe ndipo zambiri mwazakudya zomwe zili nazo zimasokonekera muzakudya zathu zamakono. Chikho chimodzi cha mbewu zouma mpendadzuwa chili ndi . Ulusi wambiri wambewu za mpendadzuwa susungunuka ndipo umatsuka zinyalala zomwe zachuluka m'matumbo. Mapuloteni a njere ali ndi ma amino acid asanu ndi atatu, omwe amawapangitsa kukhala chinthu chofunikira kwambiri kwa omwe amadya masamba. Mofanana ndi mbewu zambiri za pome, mbewu za mpendadzuwa zili ndi zakudya zambiri zomwe thupi lathu silingathe kupanga palokha. Kafukufuku wofalitsidwa mu Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry anapeza kuti mbewu za mpendadzuwa (ndi pistachios) ndizolemera kwambiri mu phytosterols mwa mtedza ndi mbewu zina zonse. Phytosterols ndi mankhwala omwe amapezeka muzomera zomwe zimakhala ndi mankhwala ofanana ndi cholesterol. Mankhwalawa amakhulupirira kuti amachepetsa cholesterol yoyipa m'magazi akagwiritsidwa ntchito mokwanira. Mbeu za mpendadzuwa ndi gwero labwino kwambiri. Mafuta osungunuka a antioxidant vitamini E amayenda m'thupi lathu lonse, kuwononga ma radicals aulere. Kupanda kutero, ma radicals amawononga mamolekyu okhala ndi mafuta ndi zinthu monga ma cell aubongo, cholesterol, ndi nembanemba zama cell. Vitamini E imakhalanso ndi mphamvu yotsutsa-kutupa ndipo imachepetsa zizindikiro zokhudzana ndi matenda otupa monga mphumu ndi nyamakazi.
