As we head into the holiday season, meals to celebrate with family and friends is likely a topic you’ll be talking about with your clients. While we tend to think of holidays as being filled with the same family foods year after year, survey data from Nielsen found that consumers are shifting away from traditional holiday eating to include more foods and ingredients from different cultures.1 |

Snacking has become nearly universal behavior in the United States, with an estimated 94% of Americans eating at least one snack per day.2 With the trend of increasing snacking frequency and snack size,3 combined with continued increases in obesity rates and widespread nutrient shortfalls, it becomes increasingly important to identify snacks that satisfy while still being healthful. This comes in especially handy during the holiday season! |

Good news about almonds and heart health. Scientific evidence suggests, but does not prove, that eating 1.5 ounces per day of most nuts, such as almonds, as a part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. One serving of almonds (28 grams) has 13 grams of unsaturated fat and only 1 gram of saturated fat. |
