A superfood that some thought was junk food

Hey, it's Mike G. here. In today's Lean-Body Secrets Ezine, I wanted to
expose another super-food that some people don't realize. In fact,
some people mistakenly think of this food as "junk food".

It's pistachio nuts.

We should all know by now that although nuts are composed of mostly
fat, they are all healthy fat and loaded with tons of vitamins, trace
nutrients, and antioxidants. And pistachios are definitely loaded with
nutrition.

Yes, these should be part of your guilt-free "approved" list of snack
foods. Not only are they great for you, but they're delicious too!

I recently saw a study done on pistachios that divided the subjects
into a control group, a group eating 1.5 oz of pistachios daily, and a 3rd
group eating 3 oz of pistachios daily. It was a controlled university
study done by Penn State researchers.

The results were impressive...

Both of the pistachio groups reduced significantly LDL bad cholesterol,
decreased non-high density lipoproteins (another heart disease risk
factor), and improved all LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol ratios
respective to each other.

The reason pistachios do a body good...

They are loaded with a unique balance of healthy fatty acids and
antioxidants.

So don't fear pistachios anymore if you thought they were fattening...
Eat up and enjoy!
