Nuts: To eat or
not to eat?
Will I gain
weight or lose weight if I eat them?
The short
answer is that nuts definitely get a big TICK!
Nuts contain
the linoleic and linolenic essential fatty acids and the fats in nuts for the most
part are unsaturated fats, including monounsaturated fats. Nuts also provide
arginine, which is a substance that may help
make the walls of the arteries
more flexible and less prone to blockages.
Many nuts are
good sources of vitamins E and B2, and are rich in protein, folate, fibre and
essential minerals such as magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, copper and
selenium.
But not all
nuts are created equally.
Two great
choices of nuts are walnuts and almonds. Eating walnuts improves the way the
body burns fat and walnut consumption may improve the use of body fat in
overweight
adults.
Almonds are a
rich source of vitamin E and have been linked to a decreased risk of cancer.
Nuts are most
healthy in their raw form. Some easy ways to increase your consumption of these
nuts are to add them to salads, throw a handful into a snaplock bag for snacking
and even add them to your smoothies.
Nuts… nature’s
multivitamin!
