Physiotherapists at the University of Illinois believe that pistachios help get rid of hunger.

The study involved 140 volunteers who were offered to eat pistachios, whose caloric content in purified form for 100 grams is 211 calories. Having eaten nuts, participants had to eat a full dinner. It turned out that those who had a bite of pistachios were fed more quickly, receiving 41% less calories than those volunteers who did not eat nuts.

Based on the research, nutritionists came to the conclusion that regular consumption of pistachios helps to control food behavior and reduce the total number of calories, without experiencing an importunate feeling of hunger.
