- Are pecans bad for you?
Pecans are a great source of healthy fats but are high in calories, so it is important to watch your portion sizes. A serving of pecans is 1 ounce, which is a little less than ¼ cup or 19 pecan halves. Roasted pecans sold as prepackaged snacks are often coated in unhealthy oils and sugar, adding empty calories.
