Need a snack? Instead of reaching for the Tootsie Rolls, experts suggest nibbling nuts to keep hunger at bay.
That’s because eating a handful of nuts a couple of times a week can cut the risk of heart disease by almost a quarter, research has revealed.
A study of more than 210,000 people found that those who ate walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, cashews, pistachios, and pecans two or more times a week were 23 percent less likely to develop coronary heart disease and 15 percent less likely to suffer from cardiovascular disease.
