Nuts and seeds are really good for your heart. Some studies indicate that these foods are very useful in reducing heart diseases and strokes. The reason for this is the benefits of these foods in reducing blood cholesterol levels, LDL particle size, arterial function and inflammation.

Studies have shown that Small dense LDL increases the risk of heart disease more than larger LDL particles.

 

It is interesting to know that in a study conducted on the Mediterranean diet, it was found that people who included nuts and Kedai Kurma in their diet had a significant decrease in smaller and denser LDL particles, an increase in larger LDL particles, and an increase in good cholesterol (HDL). They were the blood of their bodies.

In another study, people with high and normal cholesterol were randomly selected. This research was about the result of diet on blood cholesterol level of these people using olive oil or nuts containing high fat. The people in the nuts and dried fruit group had better performance in their blood arteries and lower blood triglyceride levels than the people in the olive oil group (the result of this research is without considering the blood cholesterol level of the participants).

 

Summary:

Nuts and seeds play an important role in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. Consuming nuts increases the size of LDL particles, increases HDL and also improves the functioning of blood arteries. In addition to these, the consumption of these edibles has countless other benefits for the health of the body.
