6 ways to go nutty
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: April 25, 2009
Go nuts for nuts say the authors of "The Flexitarian Diet" (McGraw-Hill, $24.95) and "The New American Plate Cookbook" (University of California Press, $25.95).
Monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats are good. Almonds may help lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and walnuts contain omega-3 fatty acids.
Ground flaxseed has soluble fiber, which helps lower cholesterol as part of a low-fat, high-fiber diet.
Here are six favorites:
1. Walnuts
2. Almonds
3. Pine nuts
4. Sunflower seeds
5. Flax (ground)
6. Peanuts
