Of all the nuts that I have eaten before, my favorite is Almond. I am not good at describing food but if you have eaten before, especially those in chocolates, I am sure you would like it too. A few times when someone or wifey buys me Almond Chocolate, I will break the chocolate and eat the Almond only. The chocolate will go to my children’s tummy. LOL!
I found some interesting fact about the goodness of Almond. And I am glad that I like Almond coz it helps to reduce my cholesterol level. My siblings tend to easily get high cholesterol.
Read this:
In addition to their cholesterol-lowering effects, almonds’ ability to reduce heart disease risk may also be partly due to the antioxidant action of the vitamin E found in the almonds, as well as to the LDL-lowering effect of almonds’ monounsaturated fats. (LDL is the form of cholesterol that has been linked to atherosclerosis and heart disease). When almonds are substituted for more traditional fats in human feeding trials, LDL cholesterol can be reduced from 8 to 12%. ~ Source
I am sure gonna get a packet of Almond to munch after this.
