Daily nut consumption prevents weight gain and improves cardiovascular health.. The experts of the American Heart Association came to this conclusion, reports EurekAlert on Monday, November 5.

Scientists have analyzed the questionnaires of more than 126 thousand men and women not suffering from chronic diseases.. Every four years, study participants answered questions about how often and how much they eat nuts..

It turned out that about 30 grams of the product per day will not only not harm the figure, but also help in the fight against obesity. In addition, scientists have concluded that eating so many nuts instead of a similar portion of red or processed meat, french fries or chips, as well as desserts will contribute to less weight gain..

"People often see nuts as foods that are high in fat and calories, so they rarely consider them healthy snacks, but in fact they contribute to less weight gain and better health," said one of the authors, Liu Xiran..

Previously, scientists from the University of Eastern Finland have shown that food high in omega-6-unsaturated fatty acids can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases and premature death.. In particular, the source of such acids are vegetable oils, nuts and seeds..
