>> Nuts contain essential fatty acids, linoleic and linolenic acids which are vital for growth, healthy skin and hair, blood pressure control, immune response and blood clotting.
>>They mostly contain unsaturated fats, especially monounsaturated fat. This type of fat does not raise blood cholesterol levels like saturated fats. Monounsaturated fats have the additional benefit of raising high-density lipoprotein (good cholesterol). This, in turn, reduces the risk of heart diseases.
>>Nuts are also one of the best natural sources of Vitamin E, an antioxidant, and are rich in protein, dietary fibre, magnesium, copper, phosphorus, potassium, selenium and folate.
>>Nuts also have lots of arginine, which may help improve the health of your artery walls and make them more flexible and less prone to blood clots.
