Shelled Foods Protect Against Cancer
All of them contain plenty of fiber, sterols, folic acid, magnesium, plant-based omega fats, vitamin E, and selenium. Due to the unsaturated fats in their composition, they raise good cholesterol and lower bad cholesterol. Eating about 50-60 grams of these shelled foods daily reduces the risk of heart disease and prevents heart attacks. It has been scientifically determined to be as effective as cholesterol-lowering pills. With omega-3 fats, they strengthen vascular health, thin the blood, reduce the likelihood of clotting, and prevent cardiac arrhythmia.
The arginine in their structure helps produce excess nitric acid in the vessel walls and aids in the relaxation and dilation of blood vessels. This dilation increases sexual desire and potency.
Research has proven, by testing on a group of students about to take an exam, that two walnuts a day against stress are more effective than all other methods (like soaking feet in warm water before an exam, suggestion therapy, etc...), and it was observed that it sharpens the mind and leads to higher grades.
Research shows that shelled foods, especially pistachios with their dense vitamin E content, are protective against cancer when 60 grams are eaten daily.
The American Women's Health Research Institute determined that shelled foods reduce the risk of heart attacks in women by 50%. For protection against cancer, folic acid needs during pregnancy, the healthy development of the baby, and blood clotting during pregnancy, it has been recommended to all pregnant women instead of medication. Eating nuts instead of additive-filled chips is healthy; 50-60 grams a day does not cause weight gain.
To show these effects, one should not consume roasted peanuts or hazelnuts. They are only considered as snacks. The use of vitamin E in cancer patients is not recommended as it causes cancer cells to grow and multiply.
