I just read that there was a study done with people who ate 1/2 cup of almonds for a snack each day and they lost weight. The researchers don't know exactly why almonds are good for weight loss and maintenance but they think that the way the almonds are build prohibits the body from using all the fat from the almonds. I need to add these to my daily diet!

So does organic virgin coconut oil. It's the protein, the essential fatty acids & not-transfats & MCT's, fats used for energy, that prevent the trigger of the insulin/glycogen cycle that puts fat on & stores it. Low carb, low-no sugar & low-no grain diets prevent the surges that trigger cravings for fats & sugars that spike insulin & re-cycle our fat cells into bigger & more effective storage units. Fats take longer to digest & stay with you longer for satiation.
