6 Reasons to Eat Nuts Daily

I’m nuts about nuts. Here are six reasons to include nuts in your diet daily!

  1. Regular nut consumption reduces the risk of heart-related death by up to 30-50%.
  2. People who eat nuts regularly live longer.
  3. People who eat nuts regularly get less type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
  4. People who eat nuts regularly are less likely to develop age-related macular degeneration.
  5. People who eat nuts regularly are leaner than those who don’t.
  6. They are simply delicious!

My standard prescription: Include a handful (about 1 oz.) of any variety of nuts (raw or roasted) in your diet each day.
