Nuts, such as walnuts and peanuts, are high in unsaturated fatty acids that help lower the level of ‘bad’ cholesterol (LDL) in the blood. It is easy to understand if you think of it as the opposite of the saturated fatty acids found in the fat and intestines of meat. Eating appropriately and avoiding overeating helps prevent and control hyperlipidemia (dyslipidemia) and helps with weight loss. Let’s learn about the health effects of nuts.

Unsaturated fatty acids are those found in most vegetable oils, such as nuts (excluding palm oil and coconut oil), and fish. Significantly reducing meat scaffolds and intestines with a lot of saturated fatty acids and steadily eating nuts such as walnuts, peanuts, and pine nuts helps to lower the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) in the blood (data from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention). However, nuts also contain some saturated fat, so eating too many of them can cause weight gain. If you add it to calcium-rich yogurt in the morning, you can see a synergistic effect even with a small amount.

Eating nuts regularly helps prevent vascular disease… anti-aging effect

Nuts lower neutral fat and blood cholesterol levels, which cause vascular disease (National Institute of Agricultural Sciences). It helps blood circulation by reducing neutral fat accumulated on the walls of blood vessels, helping to prevent heart disease (angina pectoris-myocardial infarction) and stroke (cerebral infarction-cerebral hemorrhage). It is rich in vitamin E, which contributes to hair health and hair loss control. It has the effect of slowing down aging by protecting the body’s cell membranes and making the skin elastic.

Pine nuts are rich in iron, which helps prevent and manage anemia. It has excellent amino acid effects and helps alleviate symptoms of malnutrition and weakness. Peanuts are good for preventing hardening and narrowing of blood vessels, and are rich in essential amino acids such as vitamins B1, B2, B5, E, niacin, and folic acid, so they have the effect of activating the brain and strengthening the respiratory system.

Ginkgo’s enteroplasmic content contributes to blood circulation and prevention of blood clots. Walnuts are rich in linolenic acid and vitamin E, which helps prevent arteriosclerosis and reduces waste accumulated in the body. However, you must keep in mind that eating too many nuts can make you gain weight.

What to watch out for?… It is prone to rancidity and must be stored frozen.

These days, when the heat does not go away, if you leave nuts in the living room or office, they should be stored in the refrigerator or freezer because they are easy to go rancid. When nuts rot in heat and humidity, a carcinogen (aflatoxin B1) is created. If you eat without knowing this, your risk of liver cancer increases (National Cancer Information Center). The Ministry of Food and Drug Safety announced on the 7th that the city of Namyangju, Gyeonggi-do, suspended the sale of peanut powder products with excess aflatoxin and recalled them. The product subject to recall is peanut powder sold by ‘Agricultural Corporation Morning Co., Ltd.’, and consumers who have already purchased it can stop eating and return it to the place of purchase.
