Eating only two-thirds of an ounce of nuts a day substantially reduces heart-related health problems even if you’re obese or a smoker.
That’s 16 almonds or 12 cashews. They’re that powerful.
Scientists think nuts improve health through their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory nutrients. Antioxidants reduce cell death.
Inflammation plays a serious role in heart disease and brain disorders such as Alzheimer’s.
Eat unsalted nuts and not peanuts which are technically vegetables.
And, drinking 1 to 4 cups of coffee daily reduces calcium deposits in your arteries.
Be careful about adding sugar and cream because these additional goodies may compromise coffee’s benefits.
It’s the sum total of the little things you do each day to increase your chances of being healthy parents for the long haul.
Parenting is a life-long process. Make sure you are here for both the struggles and the joy.
