A new study revealed some of the benefits associated with eating nuts and peanuts for the body, as they contain protective elements that protect against diabetes.
Benefits associated with eating nuts
According to what was published on the Health and Me website, eating 30 grams of nuts is associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease, improved weight control, and even brain health with age. Nuts are rich in fats that are beneficial for heart health, plant protein for muscles, and fiber for digestion.
Adding it to meals can also help stabilize blood sugar levels, which is especially beneficial for diabetics.
Peanuts belong to the legume family, but because their nutritional and health benefits are similar to tree nuts, they are often combined. Peanuts add a special elegance to sweet and savory recipes, and are rich in nutrients.
A handful of pistachios also provides beneficial amounts of vitamin B6, copper, phosphorus, and manganese. Pistachios are also rich in vitamin K and potassium. Vitamin K helps blood clotting and strengthens bones, while potassium is essential for healthy blood pressure.
