Love nuts? They are seriously anti-inflammatory! Beneficial results of over 5,000 participants eating healthy nuts regularly have confirmed that inflamed patients should 'go nuts' for nuts to keep inflammatory symptoms at bay.
The study was published in the 'American Journal of Clinical Nutrition' in July 2016 and found that the regular consumption of peanuts and tree nuts (that is, over 5 times per week) was linked to significantly lower inflammatory biomarkers in the blood, such as C-reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin-6.
Further to that, substituting three serves of potatoes, potato chips or refined grains with nuts also resulted in an even healthier inflammatory profile. In a nutshell, this habitual consumption of this beloved nutritious snack can help to mitigate chronic inflammation and associated diseases. References available!
Soo, eating raw, unsalted and organic nuts would be the best of course!
