The Perfect Snacks

Cashew Nuts

Nuts are considered one of the healthiest snacks available, yet so many people avoid them due to outdated misinformation that fat is “bad” for you. It turns out there is a big difference between healthy and unhealthy fat.

Nuts fall into the healthy category, making them great for your mind and body. According to health line it has even been proven in multiple studies that incorporating nuts into your diet could decrease your risk of diabetes and cardiovascular disease. There was even a Harvard study that showed those who eat nuts daily tend to live longer and healthier lives.

Healthy Fats

When we’re talking about healthy fats, nuts and seeds are brilliant examples. Many people were raised believing that all fats are unhealthy fats. It is now widely acknowledged that the only type of fat you need to watch out for is saturated fat. While nuts do contain low levels of saturated fat, these levels are balanced out with monounsaturated fatty acids, omega-3s, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, all of which are great for overall health.
