Are You Nuts?

No, I don't think you're crazy! You should know that dropping in nuts in your diet is going to do you a whole world of good.

Most nuts have polyunsaturated fats - which are heart-friendly fats. A recent study shows that people who ate nuts more than 5 times a week reduced their chances of a heart disease by 50%. Another study showed that the level of cholesterol in adults who replaced their other snacks with nuts had reduced.

Nuts are packed with the following beneficiaries :

  • Proteins
  • Folate
  • Phosphorous
  • Magnesium
  • Copper
  • Zinc
  • Selenium
Unlike other health food, nuts are not only healthy, but also delicious.
