Almonds have been found to reduce the risk of dyslipidemia, an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease among Indians finds a new study.

‘The best way to take almonds is to soak them in water overnight and eat them in the morning. Soaked one is healthier because almond’s skin rich in tannin can inhibit nutrient absorption, so it is best to peel the skin off and let the nut release all nutrients easily.’

Almonds are considered to the next big superfood because of their nutrient-rich profile."Daily consumption of 45 gms of almonds in any form can help reduce dyslipidemia." said a lead authority of the study. Another study in India has been included in this study to show the known benefits of almonds. Almonds can reduce abdominal fat, which is also one of the reasons for metabolic syndrome and ischemic heart disease.
