Merry Christmas Eve!
As you soak in the holiday cheer this week, don’t just admire your favorite nutcracker…
Adorn it with a bowl of fresh nuts!
After all, this festive holiday favorite might just save lives.
Tasty protection against a fatal heart attack
According to German folklore, nutcrackers were gifted as symbols of luck and protection.
And now, I’d still say they are the ultimate symbol of good fortune and health—as modern research suggests eating nuts can significantly protect against a fatal heart attack.
Researchers examined data from over 5,600 participants using a food frequency questionnaire.
Ultimately, they concluded that eating nuts just twice a week offers robust heart protection.
In fact, researchers found that eating nuts offers “significant and beneficial” protection against suffering a potentially fatal heart attack.
Plus, considering someone experiences a heart attack every 40 seconds here in the U.S.—I’d say that’s a huge, vitally important finding.
Not to mention, it’s a simple, tasty habit you can adopt for your health—starting today!
Enjoy a variety of fresh nuts
This isn’t the first time I’ve shared the health benefits of one of my all-time favorite snacks—nuts.
In fact, I’ve explained how they’re a healthy, nutritious snack for diabetics.
I’ve even shared how they can ward off non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (one of the fastest growing epidemics in this country).
And of course, their heart-protection benefits are vast.
These are just a few reasons why I always recommend including nuts in a healthy, balanced diet filled with fresh, whole foods.
Not to mention—nuts play a huge part in my very own A-List Diet.
So, this holiday season, go ahead and set out a bowl of nuts—almonds, walnuts, or macadamias—beside your favorite nutcracker. Then, enjoy cracking them open and indulging in some ultimate heart protection.
Just one quick tip: Skip the peanuts—they lack the heart-healthy monounsaturated fatty acids found in other nuts.
