Almonds contain more fibre than most nuts, and so they’re a good choice for weight management. They also offer some cholesterol-reducing benefits from the healthy fats. They are also a good source of antioxidant vitamin E. Research suggests that the monounsaturated fats from an almond-rich diet lower some markers of inflammation, including CRP, a high test result of which is a sign of inflammation. A CRP level higher than 1.0 mg/dL usually suggests that there is inflammation in your body.
