If you’d like to live longer, learn to like nuts.


Do you like nuts? If not, you should. 

A recent study of Americans by the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston, found that people who like nuts - and eat them on a regular basis - live longer. That’s likely because nuts are dense in nutrients such as fiber, vitamins and minerals. Nut consumption has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, respiratory disease and cancer. 

What if you don’t like nuts? The no-nuts group in the study were 7% more likely to die than the nutty bunch during the course of the 30 year study.
