Reduce Hunger

A high protein diet has been shown to induce satiety and reduce appetite when compared to a low protein diet. Because almonds are strong in protein and fiber, munching on them increases the sense of fullness. After nibbling on almonds on the same day, you will be less compelled to consume extra calories on a regular basis.

Nutrition Research in Surrey, UK, conducted a 2015 study that found that a mid-morning snack of 42 grams of almonds lowered calorie intake at lunch and supper. An earlier study published in the European Journal of Nutrition found that 137 people who ingested 43 grams of almonds per day for four weeks lowered their daily calorie consumption without receiving any additional instruction.
