Health Tip: Peanuts for the Heart, Brain and Bod!
Peanuts, which are actually in the family of legumes, are a good source of manganese, tryptophan, B3 (niacin), folate and copper as well as a good source of monounsaturated fats, the type of fat that is emphasized in the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet. Peanuts are high in antioxidants, one of the reasons they decrease the occurrence of heart disease. Four large studies’ combined research found that subjects consuming nuts at least 4 times a week showed a 37% reduced risk of coronary heart disease compared to those who never or seldom ate nuts. The niacin in peanuts has shown to improve cognitive functioning in people 65 and older. Researchers from the Chicago Health and Aging Project found that people 65+ who consumed 22mg of niacin per day had a 70% lower occurrence of Alzheimer’s than others who consumed 13mg or less of niacin-rich foods like peanuts.

Despite being high in calories and fat (but the good kind), eating nuts actually decreases the risk of weight gain! So get crackin’ with these guidelines:

  • Peanut butter: When purchasing peanut butter, be sure to read the label. Hydrogenated (trans- fats) and sugar are often added to peanut butter. Buy organic and choose brands that contain peanuts, salt-and nothing else!
     
  • All nuts should be refrigerated or frozen to keep fresh and rich in their natural goodness
     
  • Raw nuts are always best, but not always everyone’s favorite. If you buy roasted, salted nuts try for reduced salt.
