5 Reasons Why You Should Eat Peanuts Daily

Aids weight loss

Since peanuts are low in carbohydrates and high in essential nutrients like protein and fiber, they can help maintain a healthy body mass index (BMI), especially in children and young adults.

Improves heart health

 Eating peanuts is associated with better regulation of low-density lipoprotein and overall cholesterol levels. This attribute is definitely great for your heart.

 Helps build muscles

A food source as packed with plant proteins as peanuts is likely to help gym-goers build lean muscle mass better. Peanuts are also believed to promote muscle growth and repair.

Boosts immunity

These nutrient-dense foods have various immune-boosting capabilities along with the ability to regulate your blood pressure and cholesterol levels better

May prevent ageing

 One of the bioactive compounds found in peanuts - resveratrol - improves anti-ageing cell function. Eating peanuts can therefore help prevent signs of ageing from showing up.
