Weight Gain
There are quite a few studies that show eating nuts and seeds can help you lose weight. And this is true! But only in limited amounts and when balanced out by a healthy diet and exercise. Being so high in fat, nuts are a great snack while dieting because they’re filling but just like anything else, they should be eaten in moderation.
High fat also equals a high caloric load so if you eat too much, you can easily gain weight rather than lose.
If you’re going to add nuts to your diet, make sure you read the label for calories and serving sizes and keep this in mind throughout the day when planning other meals. Ultimately, reducing calories is the name of the game with most diets and a healthy snack like nuts is easy to forget.
