There is a fruit that provides multiple benefits for the body and shields health, helping in weight loss and lowering sugar.
In a scientific study, άτομα με διαβήτη τύπου 2 και ελαφρά υπερλιπιδαιμία (elevated triglycerides and slightly elevated cholesterol) followed diet 1.88 calories, either without or with unsalted almonds (about 2 handfuls, that is, 56 gr. almonds). Those who followed the diet with almonds, experienced a reduction in lipids, fasting sugar and fasting insulin levels, while they also saw the adipose tissue in their body shrink.
Eating just a handful of unsalted almonds (28 gr.) by people with type 2 diabetes 2, before a meal rich in starch, appeared to reduce postprandial glycemia (increase in blood sugar after eating), at a rate 30%, in a study by American researchers. This action is probably due to the action of almond components that inactivate amylase, an enzyme responsible for digestion (hydrolysis) of the starch we eat.
Every dietitian is careful when writing a diet plan for weight loss with "calorie" foods.. That is, with foods that in a small volume provide a lot of calories. Almonds are a calorie dense food though, if we "manage" it smartly, not only will it not burden our silhouette, αλλά μπορεί να μας βοηθήσει ουσιαστικά στη μάχη κατά των περιττών κιλών.
Smart management lies:
-Pay attention to the amount of consumption. (When instructed to consume a handful, limit yourself to one handful. If you find it difficult to resist, measure the appropriate amount of consumption in advance, put it in a food bag and take it with you, instead of the whole package).
-In the selection of unsalted almonds (the salted ones, in addition to any charge due to salt, "Stimulate" for greater consumption)
-Replacing a sugar-rich snack with almonds of equal caloric value.
