Re: Are Almonds good for you?
Yes - they are high in fat but the good kind.
They've been shown to reduce cholesterol and the risk of heart disease.
I feed them to DH whenever I can.

Yes, but only eat a small handful. Less than a dozen.
They really are healthy and have so many benefits but you have to count them out before eating them due to high fat content.

Re: Are Almonds good for you?
Almonds are very good for you. My doc keeps alsmonds and aples on his desk all dya, and although they have a high fat content, my doc told me they are a good food to keep around and eat all day long to keep my blood sugar level.

Re: Are Almonds good for you?
Almonds are good in moderation. Weight Watchers it is 1 point for 6 almonds.
I eat 6 or 12 raw unsalted almonds on the train ride home everyday to keep me from being famished when I get home.
Check out some nutrition info here.

Re: Are Almonds good for you?
Trader Joe's has almonds prepackaged in serving packages so you eat them in moderation.

Re: Are Almonds good for you?
I believe you need to eat them raw to really reap the health benefits from them. So, for example, toasted almonds lose some of the healthful benefits.
