POWER LIVING® TIP:
Go Nuts For Your Health
How would you like to curb your appetite and get an energy boost? Grab some nuts for a good heart and brain-healthy snack:
* Almonds – vitamin E, magnesium, calcium; reduces inflammation and helps block pain
* Walnuts – omega-3 fatty acids and alpha-linolenic acid; reduces inflammation, helps prevent heart disease and depression
* Peanuts ** – folate, resveratrol, vitamin E, B3; boosts brain health and fights aging
* Pistachios – vitamin A, E and B6; calms nervous system, supports immune health, helps blood flow, fights inflammation
* Brazil Nuts – selenium reduces anxiety and protects against prostate cancer
Choose raw and unsalted nuts. Create your own mix and eat in moderation with a healthy carbohydrate like an apple.
Extra Tip: Almonds are the lowest in calories, pecans and macadamia nuts are the highest.
