It’s rare when something that tastes so good can be so good for you, however now the American Heart Association is saying just that! Did you know that eating Nuts and Seeds may lower your risk of Heart Diseases?
That’s what the American Heart Association announced after it concluded a 12-year study of 22,071 male physicians showing that those who ate nuts had a smaller risk of death from cardiovascular disease. The monounsaturated fat found in nuts may be one of the reasons.
Doctors participating in the Physicians Health Study found that men whose diets contained high quantities of nuts had a decreased risk of dying from heart disease! The study’s lead author Christine M. Albert, M.D., an instructor at the Harvard Medical School in Boston, notes that nuts contain unsaturated fats including alpha-linolenic acid, which may help prevent fatal disturbances in the heart’s rhythm.
Women take heart! The AMA study followed the nut consumption of men, however a similar study tracking 86,000 women has also been performed, and the news is great there too!
Fox news has even jumped on the Nut wagon, challenging people to improve their health by eating just a handful of nuts for a year!!
