A recent study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition shows that women who eat nuts more than 2 times per week have less weight gain over an 8 year period from 1991-1999 than women who never or rarely eat nuts.
Nuts have lots of good things we need like omega 3 fatty acids, protein, fiber....
What should you look for in a nut? Raw or dry roasted are best, as you want to steer away from nuts that have added oil, especially cottonseed oil.
