A fistful of nuts can change the way you look, feel, are. But too much can be overkill. Here's where to draw the line...
Although
we tend to think of nuts as snak foods, they are great sources of
protein, vitamins, minerals and healthy oils (especially vitamin E).
Proteins are important for growth and repair of tissues, fats
provide the body essential fatty acids, vital to health. But,
moderation is key. Nuts can be addictive. Once you start eating them,
it's hard to stop. Think one handful, not bowlfuls. Limit your
intake; eating too much will result in weight gain.
