Pecan-enriched diets decrease postprandial lipid peroxidation and increase total antioxidant capacity in adults at-risk for cardiovascular disease

Pecans are a rich source of antioxidants, but the effect of regular consumption on post-meal responses is unknown. The objective of this study was to examine the impact of daily pecan consumption for 8 weeks on fasting and postprandial lipid peroxidation, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and tocopherols in adults at higher risk for cardiovascular disease […]

The effect of walnut consumption on cardio-metabolic profiles of individuals with abnormal glucose homeostasis: a systematic review and meta-analysis of clinical trials.

Findings on the effect of walnut consumption on cardio metabolic profiles in individuals with abnormal glucose homeostasis are conflicting. We summarized earlier data in this regard. A systematic literature search of relevant reports published in Medline/PubMed, ISI web of Science, EMBASE, SCOPUS and Google Scholar up to October 2020 was conducted. Randomized trials that enrolled […]
