Vitamin E is an important antioxidant, which protects the body from various degenerative diseases and helps reduce the rate of cell aging. Research has shown that a handful of almonds provide 35% of the recommended daily allowance of vitamin E. Magnesium helps maintain good bone health while fiber contributes to good heart and gastrointestinal health. Protein is a building block of muscle, hair and nails, while monounsaturated fats help lower total cholesterol if they replace saturated fats.

According to a new British-Italian scientific study, eating almonds helps the human body fight viral infections, such as the common cold and flu. The study found that the chemicals that are naturally found in the skin of these nuts, strengthen the immune system's defense against viruses. They thus increase the natural ability of the human body to inhibit the multiplication and spread of pathogenic microorganisms. However, when the skin is removed from the almonds, then their protective action is drastically reduced.

In a relatively recent study, scientists found that people who ate 60 grams of almonds a day, without changing their other eating habits, maintained their weight and also reduced other foods by increasing their intake of magnesium and vitamin E. The almonds, with the combination of protein and fiber they contain, kept the subjects in saturation longer than before, helping to better regulate weight and prevent cardiovascular disease.
