    I know it's most healthy to soak almonds for 8 to 10 hours, peel, and then eat.

    Unfortunately, I cannot find protein, dietary fiber, etc for these type of almonds.

    Google gives information for non-peeled almonds.

    People in India have soaked almonds overnight, peeled the next day for thousands of years ...... can't Google update their information accordingly.

    If any of you have this information, I'd be grateful

    Why we insist on peeled almonds is, the skin is hard to digest !
    That is in Ayurveda. If you are taking almonds with skin, go for it unless there is any problem for you.

    Even I keep pondering over it whether to peel it or not.
    Earlier we used to peel it after soaking but now we are taking with skin thinking that skin will also have its own benefits.
