We have all heard that different types of nuts offer a variety of health benefits, but do you know which ones are the best when it comes to nutrition?
Three-in-Ones
Walnuts have the most omega-3 fatty acids of any nut, making them the best to help prevent heart disease, cancer and premature aging.
PMS-Fighters
Walnuts, peanuts and soy nuts can help relieve PMS symptoms, like irritability and depression, because they contain the mineral manganese.
A Handful Will Do It
A serving size of nuts is typically an ounce, or about one handful. This equals: 14 walnut halves, 16 cashews, 24 almonds and 28 peanuts.
