We all love a good snack. Whether it's a mid-afternoon treat with your cup of coffee or a post-workout protein boost, we rarely stick to the conventional three meals a day because, well, that would be boring wouldn't it?

As much as we love snacking, many accessible and convenient snacks can be heavily processed and not necessarily healthy. That's where nuts come in! Eating a handful of nuts can have a pretty wonderful effect on your health. Nuts provide key nutrients, good fats, antioxidants, aid in the reduction of cholesterol and help you live longer. They're a part of a balanced diet and make up a big part of the protein in the food pyramid. Protein is a building block of muscle, cartilage, skin, hair, nails, and blood. Our body uses it to repair tissues.
