Soaking of almonds is needed for say 6 hours to help you to digest the nut well.Walnuts/cashews n other nuts do not need soaking.
But all nuts if eaten whole should be properly chewded to get the maximum benefit from them.

Almonds are one special nuts which need to be soaked overnight before consuming to get max benefit of this wonder nut! Many are unaware that the brown peel of almonds contains tannin, which inhibits nutrient absorption.
Next Steps
Once the Almonds are soaked overnight, the peel comes off easily, and nuts release nutrients which are effectively absorbed in the body.
Health Tips
Soaked almonds also help with digestion. It releases the enzyme lipase, which is beneficial for fat digestion hence essential for heart health and lowering lipids.
