Below are 5 nutritious nuts that you can safely use during Tet without worrying about gaining belly fat.

Almonds

Almonds are a great source of plant protein and rich in unsaturated fats, which help lower bad cholesterol and promote heart health.

According to research published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, almonds help control hunger and stabilize blood sugar, reducing the risk of belly fat accumulation.

With high fiber and protein content, almonds also help the body burn calories more effectively.

Walnuts

Walnuts are rich in omega-3s, a beneficial fatty acid that helps reduce inflammation and prevent excess fat accumulation in the belly area.

According to the American Heart Association (AHA), regular consumption of walnuts can improve insulin sensitivity and support metabolism, which is especially helpful during the Lunar New Year when food intake often increases.

Pistachios

Pistachios are an ideal snack because they are low in calories but high in fiber and protein.

According to research from the International Journal of Obesity, pistachios help reduce body mass index (BMI) and support weight control. In addition, the process of peeling pistachios when eating helps create a feeling of eating slowly, avoiding overeating.

Chia seeds

Chia seeds are tiny but rich in omega-3, fiber and protein, helping to increase feelings of fullness for a long time.

According to the US National Institute of Nutrition, chia seeds help absorb water, forming a gel in the stomach, thereby slowing down digestion and controlling blood sugar.

When you use chia seeds in drinks or salads during Tet, you will reduce the risk of consuming unnecessary calories.

Sunflower seeds

Sunflower seeds are a familiar snack during Tet, containing lots of vitamin E, magnesium and unsaturated fat.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), consuming sunflower seeds helps reduce oxidative stress and supports metabolism, thereby limiting belly fat accumulation. However, you should choose unseasoned or low-salt seeds to avoid water retention.

Benefits of these nuts:

The above nuts not only help limit belly fat accumulation but also provide sustainable energy, improve cardiovascular health and strengthen the immune system.

They are all rich in protein, healthy fats and fiber, creating a feeling of fullness for a long time, reducing cravings and limiting the consumption of unhealthy foods during Tet.
