Best Nuts for a Healthy Diet: A Guide to Nutritious Choices


Question
>nuts are good

I like the honey-roasted nuts, but I'm betting these aren't all that healthy. What kinds of plain nuts are the best?

>P.S.  Is your health not worth it?

Well, I'm young and quite healthy with the diet I'm currently on, so it's not worth the scarce money right NOW. I'd just like to lose a tiny bit of weight and see the muscles I've been working on for a while now.

Answer
Luke,

I wrote an answer to this question already.  I wonder if the system did not deliver it...?

Try to choose nuts that are relatively high in unsaturated fats (walnuts), not relatively high in saturated fats (macadamia nuts).  Avoid nuts that are overly salted or have been roasted using oil.

The best nuts are walnuts, almonds, peanuts and cashews.  Nuts tend to be high in calories, so watch how many you eat.

Here is a good article on nuts:

Sorry if this answer was delayed.
