Go to http://www.calorieking.com/ and search their food and nutrient database. You can find the nuts there an play with the volume (Cup,oz, per nut etc). You will get the info you need from there.

thanks for the info...i have been eating a lot of pine nuts for the last 3 days for energy (the rest of my diet being protien and minimal veggies for fibre) and i have fopund them to be a very tasty substitute for carbs...anyone having carb cravings ona low carb or high fat diet should try 'em...I'm cutting and don't feel tired and my muscles aren't flat even though i've not been eating that much carbs(right now I'm at about 60%protien, 30%fat,10% carbs) hope to get it to 75/25 p/f in the next few days.

musclefattie,

nuts are not just carbs
they also have much fat (though good ones)
and a few proteins

yeah i know they're not just carbs, they are mostly fat...that's the point! i think they are a good substitue for carbs.
