Eat more nuts and seeds

Raw seeds and nuts are basically the living embryos of plants, carrying the concentrated nutritional power that can spark life. They provide a unique combination of nutrients, including omega-3 fatty acids, amino acids, minerals, vitamins, fiber, antioxidants, phytosterols, and high quality plant protein. Among many health benefits, these foods decrease insulin response and inflammation, which can protect against Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. And though they are high in calories, they are so filling that they may actually help you lose weight.
