A study from researchers at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, working with Brigham and Women’s Hospital and the Harvard School of Public Health, found that eating an ounce of nuts a day might help people live longer lives and prevent weight gain.
Doctor Charles Fuchs of Dana-Farber, who led the team of researchers is quoted as saying: “The most obvious benefit was a reduction of 29 percent in deaths from heart disease, the major killer of people in America. But we also saw a significant reduction of 11 percent in the risk of dying from cancer.”
Results of the study are based on analysis of data from two large studies including a subject group of 120 thousand people that researchers had been keeping tabs on since 1976, and another study of over 50 thousand men that started in 1986.
Participants were asked about how often they ate nuts, and people who said they ate nuts seven or more times every week had a death rate that was reportedly 20 percent lower than other participants in the studies.
What do you think about the results of the study? Does eating nuts really have health benefits?
