Eating nuts has a downside: they can lead to weight gain if consumed in excess.

1, Fresh

Nuts you buy should be eaten as soon as possible. Don't keep them for too long. Nuts contain a lot of oil, and if kept for too long, they will oxidize and develop a "rancid" smell. Not only does this reduce their nutritional value, but it can also accelerate the aging process. Nuts that have been stored for a long time are also prone to mold, and moldy nuts can produce aflatoxin, a highly toxic substance that can lead to liver cancer.

2, Unflavored

Nuts come in various flavors: plain, roasted with salt, sugar-roasted, salt and pepper, and even coated in sugar. It's best to choose plain nuts. Roasted and salt-and-pepper varieties can lead to excessive salt intake without you realizing it. Those processed with sugar can cause excessive calorie intake. Additionally, nuts that are heated at high temperatures for extended periods may have their nutritional composition altered, producing an excess of trans fatty acids.

3, In Moderation

Nuts contain a large amount of fat. Do not consume more than 30 grams of nuts at a time, otherwise, you will consume too many calories and it is very easy to gain weight.
