Almonds

I love almonds especially when it is inside a chocolate. Eating almond nuts are not just fun but it also have some health benefits. Almond is packed with 26% carbohydrates (12 % dietary fiber, 6.3% sugar and 0.7% starch) which can be a good in between meal snacks. It also contains vitamin E (24 mg / 100 g) which is good for our skin. Aside from that, almonds contain monosaturated fat which is one of the two good fats responsible for lowering LDL cholesterol.
I always have almonds in my drawer
So what are you waiting for? Stock some almonds nut in your drawer to have a healthier snack in your office. I just did!
