    Nuts are walnuts, almonds, peanuts, melon seeds, almonds, pistachios, etc. These nuts are rich in nutrients, rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, magnesium, potassium and other heart-friendly ingredients, as well as sterols, vitamin E, dietary fiber, plants Chemicals (polyphenols, etc.) are good for blood lipids. Most importantly, there is evidence from epidemiological investigations to support that eating a handful of nuts (such as 3 walnuts) daily can reduce the risk of heart disease and is also beneficial for preventing diabetes. Therefore, most countries’ dietary guidelines recommend eating moderate amounts of nuts. For example, the Chinese Nutrition Society’s “Dietary Guidelines for Chinese Residents” recommends eating 10 grams of nuts per day.
