Such a healthy nutritious snack. Really fills you when you are hungry and gives you a slow release of energy. Such a good source of protein and good fats coupled with many other benefits.
Dr Fuhrman writes how they are great for weight and long life…
Nuts and seeds are healthful, natural foods that are full of beneficial nutrients and phytochemicals. Although the myth that nuts and seeds are fattening has persisted, the research suggests that nuts are actually beneficial for weight loss. In any case, it’s not the fat content of a diet that makes it healthy, it’s the nutrient content. And based on their nutrient content, nuts are a health-promoting source of calories.
