Let’s play name the nut! This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. It’s green and comes in a shell that people like to open. What is it? A pistachio! People have been eating pistachios for over nine thousand years. Not only are they fun to eat, but they also have a ton of health benefits. If you are trying to add more protein to your diet this is the snack for you! They are packed full of protein and fiber that can help aid in weight loss. They also contain antioxidants that help prevent cell damage and cancer. Worried about blood sugar? Pistachios have been shown to lower blood sugar with people who consumed a carbohydrate rich diet. Even people with type two diabetes saw a nine percent reduction in fasting glucose when they ate 25 grams of pistachios twice a week.
