The green nut also contains lots of fitoterol that helps to lower the risk of heart diseases as well as several cancers.
Apart from that, pistachio also helps to lower bad cholesterol (LDL), increase good cholesterol (HDL) in human body, protect intestines as well as strengthen your liver and kidney.
Researchers in Pennsylvania State University made a research that requires the respondents to eat at least 42 grams of pistachio every day. At the end of the fourth week, those who are consistent eating the nut succeeded in decreasing their cholesterol level for up to 6.7 percent, and LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) for up to 11.6 percent.
Coincidentally, the decrease in cholesterol level for almost 7 percent lowers the risk of heart disease for up to 14 percent!
