According to a recent study from the University of South Australia, “a handful of almonds” may help us maintain our weight. “Researchers studying how almonds affect human appetite discovered that a snack of 30-50 gramme of almonds could encourage people to consume fewer kilojoules per day,” according to an ANI report. The results have been published in the European Journal of Nutrition.
It was discovered that people who ate almonds instead of an energy-equivalent carb-rich snack consumed 300 kilojoules less at the next meal.
“Almonds are an excellent healthy snack to include in your daily diet. We are now excited to investigate how almonds may affect appetite during a weight loss diet and how they may aid in long-term weight management “Dr Sharayah Carter of the University of South Australia’s Alliance for Research in Exercise, Nutrition, and Activity explains (ARENA).
