Abstract in brief

  • Regular almond consumption (15 oz/day) in healthy adults with high LDL cholesterol reduces harmful "bad" cholesterol (LDL and non-HDL cholesterol) and abdominal fat, which are key risk factors for cardiometabolic diseases.
  • The study compared a diet with almonds to an identical calorie diet with an isocaloric muffin, showing that almonds specifically lowered LDL cholesterol and abdominal fat without decreasing "good" cholesterol (HDL).
  • Consuming almonds as a snack can be an effective and simple dietary change to help prevent cardiometabolic problems, such as heart disease, even in healthy individuals.
