Hello again!
> They are very good for you, no doubt. Just the selenium content cannot be standardized. And, high calorie density is a factor.
I don't really have a concern with high calorie density stuff - I don't eat junk (well very occassionally!) and I don't eat red meat and I'm pretty slim and I cycle everywhere (except when its really cold and there's alot of ice around!) and well, I find that if I snack on nuts, it actually suppresses my hunger very well. And they're not something I can just eat and eat - a handful when I'm peckish and looking for something to eat in the cupboards and thats about it.
I think nuts are underrated.
Kind regards
Meri
