  • Are Almonds Healthy?

    From Mike Dippel@999:1/1 to All on Tuesday, December 10, 2024 21:21:12
    Many people eat almonds daily, but very few know the importance of it. Almond is rich
    source of Vitamin E, Manganese, Fats and Riboflavin.

    Following are the some nutritive value of almond:
    100 grams of almond contains ÿ

    Fats 58.9 grams
    Vitamin E- 26.2mg
    Riboflavin (vitamin B2)-1.014 mg
    Manganese -2.285 mg

    Vitamin E is a potent antioxidant and has an ability to modulate immune functions.
    Deficiency of this crucial immune booster is not uncommon. In vitamin E deficiency most
    of the immune parameters show a downward trend, which is associated with increased
    infectious diseases and the incidence of tumors.

    In contrast, vitamin E supplementation has various beneficial effects on the immune
    system. This quality of E may be harnessed in autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus where over exuberant immune responses need to be
    restrained.

    Manganese: Supplementation of manganese has been shown to enhance natural killer
    cell and macrophage activity (ability to eat foreign bodies and infectious micro organism)

    Many of us get scared when we see Fat value of almonds. But this value is for 100 grams
    of almond. In 100 grams we get almost 23-24 almonds. So if you are eating 2ÿ4 almonds a day it will give you around 4ÿ8 grams of healthy fats. Yes healthy fats.

    Almonds are good to increase your HDL value which is your good cholesterol. These
    cholesterols are needed for healing process of your body. Viruses or bacteria damage
    many tissues in our body, and this tissue damage is healed by this cholesterol.

    Riboflavin also helps to enhance natural immunity by strengthening the antibody
    reserves and by reinforcing the defense system against infections.

    Taking 2ÿ4 almonds daily will complete your daily requirement of Vitamin E, manganese
    and riboflavin

    I kid you not, I have just finished eating a half bowl of chocolate covered almonds. I feel better about that already.

    I hope you can sleep tonight with all that sugar :) I just got home from a Christmas
    dinner at our church. I took a good dose of insulin before the meal, but I think the
    pecan pie and all the bread is going to keep me awake tonight.

    Oh well. It was worth it!

    Wow, I'm late to the party and missed the chocolate covered Almonds. My sinful pleasure lately have been chocolate chip cookies, are they good for me?

    If they make you smile as you eat them, then yes, they are good for you.

    I remember my step mom, when I was much younger, putting some chocolate replacement chips (carob or something like that) in cookies for a better part of my Junior year of highschool. They were not good. I wonder today, with all of the fad diets that have come and gone, if they'd even be considered good for us now?
