While you can safely eat raw or roasted almonds, there are some extra benefits you can get by having soaked and peeled almonds. The skin of the almonds is difficult to digest. Moreover, almond skin contains tannins and phytic acid which prevent nutrient absorption . When we do not soak almonds, the phytic acid in them is not removed which hinders the absorption of micronutrients like zinc and iron which is not properly utilized by the body. So the best time to get the maximum benefits is first thing in the morning starting your day with a few soaked almonds without peels .
