Health Benefits

Almonds are a fantastic source of antioxidants. Antioxidants help protect against oxidative stress, which can damage molecules in your cells and contribute to inflammation, aging and diseases like cancer. Almonds do more than just lower LDL levels in your blood. They also protect LDL from oxidation, which is a crucial step in the development of heart disease. Both raw and roasted almonds have been found to act as prebiotics, which serve as food for the beneficial bacteria in the gut linked to immunity, anti-inflammation, and mental health. Almonds are also an excellent dietary source of vitamin E and can help better cholesterol levels as well as aid in lowering blood pressure.

How to Store and Select

Storing nuts correctly is important to ensure maximum freshness and taste. Whether you buy this heart-healthy snack in a 1-pound bag or in bulk they can become rancid rapidly if not stored properly. Heat exposure will cause the oils in nuts to go bad, resulting in rancid nuts. Store your nuts in the fridge or freezer (away from onions and other strong-smelling foods), this limits the exposure to light, oxygen and heat. Use containers with air-tight seals, a glass jar or plastic containers are a good option to maintain proper moisture levels. Label the products you store with dates so you know which ones to indulge in first. Make sure to let cold nuts warm up to room temperature before opening the bag. This prevents the nuts from absorbing excess moisture. If you are planning on eating and finishing the bag within a few days just storing them in an air-tight container will be sufficient.
