If you can\u2019t go a day without munching on something salty, how about tossing away the crackers and opting nuts? Walnuts specifically are chock-full of antioxidants\u2014twice more than pistachios and pecans. An ounce of the mixed nuts daily can reduce the risk of heart attacks by nearly 30 percent. You don\u2019t have to purchase overpriced nuts, and sprinkling them on top of healthy pastas is a great way to incorporate more into your diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
