This study examined the implication of cashew production, consumption and utilization on the health of end-users. Desk research was carried out using past published literatures. The study outlined the effects of production, consumption and utilization of cashew on human health. The benefits of cashew production, consumption and utilization outweighed the negative effects. Cashew production and use should be promoted because it is beneficial in the treatment of a variety of diseases and ailments. More study on reducing chemical components (allergens) found in unroasted cashews should be encouraged by the government and other stakeholders in the cashew value chain to reduce their sensitivity to people.
This will improve the contributions of the crop to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country.
