nothing beats an almond

Did you know one ounce of almonds gives you more iron than spinach, more fiber than any other nut, and more potassium than a banana. Almonds have zero cholestrol and a ton of nutrients such as protein and vitamin E. They're low in saturated fat and cholestrol free. Plus, they're a nice snack when you're hungry because they'll satisfy you.
