Almonds Reduce Total Cholesterol
30 Aug 2021
Dr. David Jenkins , Director of Clinical Nutrition at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, is one notabel researcher among many who have studied the health benefits of almonds. A daily handful significantly decreases the risk of a cardiovascular event. Almonds lower total cholesterol and increase good cholesterol. While nuts are high in fat, their ratio of monounsaturated to polyunsaturated types supports a balanced diet and almonds are a good choice for anyone monitoring their cholesterol. Ensure you are consuming raw or dry-roasted, unsalted, and oil-free almonds.
