Eating almonds helps reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. They are low in carbohydrates, high in healthy fats, and high in magnesium.
Weight loss
One study found that a low calorie diet with 84 grams of almonds increases weight loss by 62% compared to a diet rich in complex carbohydrates.
Hypertension
Almonds help reduce blood pressure in people with hypertension, thanks to their richness in magnesium, which produces nitric oxide in the body, which helps to expand blood vessels, thus preventing high blood pressure.
High blood pressure is a major cause of heart attack, stroke, and kidney failure.
Studies show that correcting magnesium deficiency by adding almonds to the diet can lead to a significant reduction in blood pressure.
