New research suggests, eating nuts, including peanut butter
can increase longevity of life. Diets of 206, 029 people were monitored in the
United States and China, finding that nut consumption was linked in lowering
risk of premature death from cardiovascular disease and other causes. Researchers
monitored the consumption of nuts in men and women for various time periods,
ranging from 5 years to more than 12 years. The group who ate the most nuts,
peanuts, and peanut butter reduced their risk of early death from
cardiovascular disease and all other causes by nearly 20%, compared to those
who consumed the least. The U.S. group who ate the most nuts, resulting in the
20% finding, consumed more than 18 grams of peanuts a day, roughly two
tablespoons. Include nuts in your daily diet by adding them to yogurt, dried
fruit, cereal, or oatmeal, to help yourself live healthier and longer! Nuts are
rich in nutrients such as unsaturated fatty acids, fiber, vitamins, and
phenolic antioxidants.
