Nutrition Benefits: Almonds and Cashews are great sources of healthy fats, fiber, and protein. Almonds have magnesium, and Vitamin E, which are beneficial for reducing the risk of heart disease. Studies have also proven that almonds can assist in regulating sugar and cholesterol levels. Cashews contain copper, magnesium, and manganese, all of which are essential nutrients for energy production, brain health, immunity, and bone health. Kale is an amazing source of antioxidants that are known to reduce oxidative stress (this occurs when there is an imbalance between free radicals that damage your cells and your body's capability to fight off their harmful effects) and inflammation, known triggers for chronic diseases and premature aging. Kale is a heart-healthy food as it prevents the re-absorption of bad cholesterol from your digestive tract into your bloodstream by increasing the excretion of cholesterol. It also provides eye health support thanks to lutein and zeaxanthin that protect the eye lens and retina.
