American heart experts from Connecticut performed a series of tests involving a large group of individuals. They were asked to eat a handful of almond nuts (25-30 g) during the day. The experiment lasted one month. Heart experts even developed a special diet based on these foods designed to protect heart and ward off another heart attack in those who suffered it before.
