About Almonds

Did you know that almonds are among the lowest-calorie nuts? They are also the highest tree nut in six essential nutrients:  protein, fiber, calcium, vitamin E, riboflavin, and niacin. Almonds are high in monounsaturated fat. (Monounsaturated fats can help reduce bad cholesterol levels in your blood which can lower your risk of heart disease and stroke.)  These are some good reasons for eating almonds.
