Dose Response of Almonds on Coronary Heart Disease Risk Factors
This article yet again confirms the health benefits of raw, whole nuts, but also that the fats within the almond do not work alone. The proteins and fiber within the nut also exhibit beneficial effects. This just points so strongly to the fact that foods, as Mother Nature gave them to us, are infinitely better than super concentrated supplements containing what we believe (for this month, anyway…) to be the active constituent.
