Prevention.

GOOD SNACK ATTACK 2007-06-02 19:07:02 Satisfy Your Next Snack Attack With Almonds
(NewsUSA) - Next time you think about snacking on the go, grab
a handful of almonds - they’re nutritious, satisfying and portable.
Researchers at Tufts University recently discovered that a 1-ounce serving of
almonds contains the same level of flavonoid antioxidants as a serving of cooked broccoli or a
serving of brewed green or black tea.
Research also shows that eating more magnesium-rich foods, such as almonds, may help
protect against diabetes, and snacking on almonds can help stabilize blood sugar levels.
Since high blood sugar levels often lead to a feeling of hunger that prompts people to
eat more than they should, snacking on almonds could have implications for weight management,
too.
Still more research shows that eating an ounce or two of almonds every day can help lower
low-density lipoprotein, or “bad,” cholesterol levels.
A 1-ounce handful of almonds, about 23 nuts, provides heart-healthy monounsaturated

usual.
