Good news Almonds can help burn belly fat and stay away from heart diseases, a new study says. Eating at least 1.5 ounces (42 g) of almonds every day also improved LDL (low-density lipoproteins) or the bad cholesterol, the total cholesterol; reduced waist circumference and leg fat in participants. Here are several healthy reasons why almonds are a SUPERFOOD:
They’re high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fat.
They have the perfect balance of carbohydrate, protein and good-for-you fats to keep hunger at bay and help to maintain a healthy weight.
They’re rich in bone-building calcium.
Their low glycemic index keeps blood sugar stable helping to prevent diabetes.
Their high vitamin E content creates radiant skin.
They’re abundant in fiber, which is essential for pretty much everything (heart health, diabetes prevention, weight management, glowing skin and smooth digestion).
