What Nidam al-Tayyibat says
The system's position on peanuts is contradictory: some lists allow them in moderation, others exclude them as a legume. We place them among foods for very occasional use.
Sources differ: Sources divergentes : admise avec mesure pour les unes, exclue comme légumineuse pour la majorité. Le guide des cinq zones place cet aliment en zone rouge (interdit) ; les listes explicites recoupées le placent en zone violette. CONTRADICTION MAJEURE : altayebaat = autorisées (orange) ; majorité + classification botanique = interdites. Retenu rouge.
What conventional nutrition says
Peanuts are a legume rich in protein and healthy fats, recommendable in conventional nutrition barring allergy.
