You can eat fruit after eating nuts, but because nuts contain a lot of fat, it is difficult to digest if you eat too much. If you can eat fruit first, it will help digestion. Don't worry about indigestion if you eat too many nuts. It is best to eat in moderation in daily life, and don't overeat.
How to eat is healthy.
1, walnut is the king of oxidation resistance. Walnut contains arginine, oleic acid, antioxidants, etc., which is of great benefit to protect the cardiovascular system and prevent coronary heart disease, stroke and Alzheimer's disease, but don't eat too much at a time, otherwise it will affect digestion. Some people like to peel off the thin brown skin on the nuclear surface, which will lose some nutrients, so don't peel off this skin. Old people can choose to eat 1-2 walnuts a day, but walnuts are too hot and oily for people with diarrhea.
2, sunflower seeds eat a handful of sunflower seeds every day, you can meet the vitamin E that the human body needs for one day. Sunflower seeds contain protein comparable to meat, especially arginine. Eating sunflower seeds regularly has a certain effect on preventing coronary heart disease and stroke, lowering blood pressure and protecting vascular elasticity. Medical scientists believe that sunflower seeds can treat insomnia, enhance memory and prevent cancer, hypertension and neurasthenia.
3, pistachios contain monounsaturated fatty acids, which can reduce cholesterol content and reduce the occurrence of heart disease. Eating 10 pistachios is equivalent to eating 1.5g monounsaturated fatty acids, but pistachios should not be eaten after being stored for too long. Pistachio nuts are high in calories and people with high blood fat should eat less.
4. Patients with coronary heart disease who often eat almonds have a 50% lower probability of angina pectoris than those who don't. Almond has the function of regulating insulin and blood sugar levels, and it is also one of the dietetic products for diabetic patients. Almonds are also beneficial to prevent osteoporosis in menopausal women.
Matters needing attention
Nuts are nutritious, but they are also high-calorie foods and should not be eaten in excess. If you accidentally eat more nuts, you should reduce the oil consumption and diet for three meals a day.

Walnut: strengthening the brain and preventing Alzheimer's disease
The American Dietetic Association advises people to eat walnuts two or three times a week, especially middle-aged and elderly people and menopausal women, because arginine, oleic acid and antioxidants contained in walnuts can protect the cardiovascular system and have the same effect on preventing coronary heart disease, stroke and Alzheimer's disease.
Walnut is rich in lecithin, unsaturated fatty acids, and also contains a variety of antioxidants, such as vitamin C and vitamin E, which can fight against oxygen free radicals that make people aging. Walnut kernel looks like a human brain, so there is a saying that eating walnuts supplements the brain. This is because walnuts contain a lot of nutrients that can strengthen the brain and improve intelligence, such as lecithin, which has a good health care effect on the brain nerves and is very suitable for growing children and adults who often use their brains.
Walnut kernel contains zinc, manganese, chromium and other indispensable trace elements. The contents of zinc and manganese are decreasing in the process of aging, and chromium can promote glucose utilization, cholesterol metabolism and protect cardiovascular system.
Walnut kernel also has a very obvious effect on relieving cough and asthma, and has excellent curative effect on patients with chronic bronchitis and asthma in autumn and winter. It can be seen that eating walnuts regularly can not only strengthen the body, but also resist aging. Some people often take tonics. In fact, it is really good to eat a few walnuts every morning and evening, which is often better than taking tonic. Be careful not to peel off the thin brown skin on the surface of walnut kernel when eating, which will lose some nutrients.

The only cool dried fruit: almonds lower cholesterol and protect the heart.
A new study shows that people with normal or slightly higher cholesterol levels can use almonds (China almonds) to replace foods with low nutritional density in their diets, so as to lower blood cholesterol and keep their hearts healthy.
In addition to being rich in unsaturated fatty acids, almonds also contain high levels of vitamin C and vitamin E, which makes the beauty function of almonds stand out. Of course, the contents of trace elements such as calcium, phosphorus and iron that are indispensable to human body in almonds are not inferior. Together, these nutrients can effectively reduce the risk of heart disease.
Traditional Chinese medicine point of view: Almond is the only cool thing among the four nuts, so it is very suitable for dry autumn. Almond also has unique functions of relieving cough, moistening lung and relieving asthma, which can effectively deal with cough symptoms that often appear in autumn.
