Peanuts and Bananas

Although mixed nuts are generally more expensive, I have been only buying these. I really can't get enough of them. My banana kick has been limited to breakfast only.
 
Walnuts are good....highest in w3-6 ratio. A recent research I just read found that eating 3 oz. of walnuts per day for 4 weeks reduced total cholesterol by 12%, but even more fascinating it lowered LDL by 18%!

Similar results were shown for almonds, cashews, pecans and even pistachios.

I would suggest one thing, watch what they are roasted in. Some are roasted in partially hydrogenated oils. I get them raw from my health food store.

walnuts are damn good...actually, no nuts really is bad at all....I myself enjoy shelled peanuts the best.....
 
I'd say if this is this combo you eat all the time, thats not a high enough protein ratio in your diet. For example at the moment I am actually eating a bag of peanuts. Per 100g there is 24.5g protein, 53.0g of fat and 7.1g of carbs. That is 29% protein, but if you add bananas, pure carbs, the figure goes much lower depending.

At the same time you wouldn't wanna just eat peanuts without bananas because there are basically no carbs which isn't very good for bulking, though maybe cutting.

Also, bear in mind all nuts aren't blessed with the protein content that peanuts have, some are almost totally made up of fat.

My advice would be to drink skimmed milk as a snack. Simple. Its about 35% protein and quite low in fat.
 
Take my previous comment back! My nuts have vegetable oil on them so that skewed the figures... least I tried!

Milk though, its great.

no more advice, ok???? :rolleyes:
 
way to many nuts in a day!!!! you are causing major back up in your system, nuts cause bloating and are hard to digest.
that is why the recomendations are a handful a day not the whole tub......

almonds, walnuts, and soynuts are the better choices
"unsalted" soynuts have 10g protein, 5 fiber, 7 fat[1 sat], 140 cal, for a 1/4 cup
NO cholesterol, sodium, sugars, or trans fats
and they are high in Isoflavones.

take a break for your digestive sytem ;)
