The BBC Podcast ‘Just one Thing’ with Michael Mosley focused on the health benefits of nuts in the episode ‘Nibble Some Nuts‘. They said…
‘Nuts are a rich source of fibre and polyphenols. They are also very high in fats and calories, but studies have shown that eating these bite-sized snacks won’t add to your waistline. These nutrient powerhouses could also help slow-down the ageing process. Research has found that walnut eaters live, on average, over a year longer than those who don’t. What’s more, adding nuts to your diet can help your brain!’
So us nutters may not be so nutty after all!!
