It's not bad to eat them, Lessara. But moderation should always prevail. 1 or 2 ounces is one thing, a jar is another matter. While 10g of carbs is only 10g of carbs it's 10g you didnt get from green veggies or salads, which is where you need to be getting them. Macadamia nuts in combination with a balanced low carb meal plan are prefectly fine.
