-Have been shown to optimize Cholesterol & Triglyceride levels.
-Have the best Omega 3:6 ratio of 1:1 (to help avoid inflammation) when compared to other tree nuts.
-Contain Omega-7 (Palmitoleic Acid) which is a Lipokine that helps the body use Omega-3s better, enhances the metabolism of carbs, increases satiety, and stimulates fat burning (specifically White Fat, aka ‘bad fat’.)
