Top 4 reasons to eat peanuts
, , ,
1. Peanuts contain a lot of protein, which serves as a vital nutrient for the growth and maintenance of overall muscle and body organs such as the skin and hair.
2. They serve as a protective function against cancers, heart disease, degenerative nerve disease, Alzheimer's disease, and viral/fungal infections.
3. They are rich in monounsaturated fats, the type of fat that reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels and thereby reduces the risk of coronary heart diseases.
4. Peanuts also contain high amounts of niacin, which is used to convert starch that can be stored in muscles and liver for eventual use as an energy source.
