Pecans are fine - they have more omega-3 fatty acids than other nuts (with the exception of walnuts) and are low in saturated fats. They are also one of the nuts highest in fibre... Unfortunately they have less protein than most other nuts... But as a fat source they are great (especially because they are almost 70% fat and therefore have more fat than most other nuts as well).
