Mindsip insights from this episode:
Incorporate nuts to reduce risk of premature death
Compared to any other food group, the consumption of nuts is associated with the lowest risk of premature death from any cause.
Limit nut intake to reduce kidney stone risk
Consuming more than a cup of nuts a day may increase the risk of kidney stones, as some nuts like almonds are high in oxalates.
Choose whole nuts over peanut butter for better health benefits
Peanut butter consumption does not appear to have the same significant mortality-reducing effects as eating whole nuts.
Consume nuts to lower mortality risk beyond lifestyle factors
The link between nut consumption and reduced mortality holds true even after scientifically adjusting for dozens of other lifestyle factors like exercise, smoking, and total calorie intake.
Choose walnuts for optimal longevity benefits
Among all nuts, walnuts may be the single healthiest choice for longevity benefits.
Limit daily nut intake to 12 grams for optimal health benefits
The greatest reduction in all-cause mortality is associated with about three servings per week, which equates to only 12 grams of nuts per day.
