No they don't. They especially mean almonds, walnuts, pecans,
etc.. It's not only magnesium and PUFA (of which
alpha-linolenic acid in walnuts for example could be
important), but possibly also MUFA (in almonds for example),
amino acid arginine, and antioxidative phenolic compounds
found for example in almonds and walnuts.
