Healthy Facts About Pecans

According to a recent article by Life Extension Foundation, a new research study done at Loma Linda University (located in California) has found more evidence to prove that pecans are in fact a healthy food. Research shows that "eating pecans increases the amount of healthy antioxidants" and these antioxidants are "indeed absorbed in the body and provide a protective effect against diseases" such as cancer and heart disease.

The study had participants eating about three ounces of pecans. The participants were both men and women ranging in ages from 23 to 44 years of age.
