Excess of anything is bad for health. I would suggest not to eat more than one first of peanut per day (Approx. 25 to 30 grams) . No doubt they are good source of healthy fats. Excess intake will cause acidity, bloating and indigestion in most of individual. Also keep check on the quality of peanuts you are having. If you found any mould growth then avoid that particular peanut.Also keep check on hand hygiene..
Health Tips
If you are allergic to peanuts. Than please avoid intake.

Hi,
Excess of anything is harmful. Peanuts are full of oil which may work wonders if taken in moderation but proves harmful if exceeds the quantity.
Can consume 8-10 peanuts on a daily basis but that too if you don't have elevated Lipids.
Next Steps
Hope you find this helpful
