Nuts

Hi there,
I love nuts, but my friends keep telling me that I eat too much of them (a handful per day). I have a healthy weight (even slightly skinny though). Am I eating them properly?

Hello Mark
Thank you for your question, I think a handful of nuts each day is fine, as long as you are eating a variety, so almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts and so on, not just peanuts, and ensuring that they don't contain salt or added flavours then nuts are a great source of essential fatty acids. You might want to try adding in a few seeds as well for a bit of variety.
