Eating Nuts Can Lower Cholesterol
Nuts may block cholesterol absorption, experts say. Eating nuts may help lower cholesterol levels, US research suggests.
The review of 25 studies, involving nearly 600 people, showed eating on average 67g of nuts - a small bag - a day reduced cholesterol levels by 7.4%.
The US Loma Linda University team believes nuts may help prevent the absorption of cholesterol.
Experts said the research showed nuts were an important part of a healthy diet, but warned against eating nuts covered in sugar or salt.
