Cientistas da Universidade de Purdue, em Indiana (EUA), descobriram que as amêndoas ajudam a controlar o apetite sem aumentar o peso. Na pesquisa, 137 adultos foram divididos em cinco grupos. Um deles evitou todos os tipos de nozes e sementes por quatro semanas, enquanto os outros comeram amêndoas todos os dias, no café da manha, no almoço, no lanche ou no jantar.
O estudo comprovou que, apesar de terem consumido cerca de 250 calorias diárias em amêndoas, não houve alteração na ingestão calórica. Assim, eles não ganharam peso durante o mês experimentado. Richard Mattes, Ph. D. em nutrição humana e responsável pelo estudo, diz que a combinação de proteínas, fibras e gordura monoinsaturada (que ajuda a combater o colesterol ruim) – presentes na amêndoa – aumenta a saciedade por conta da digestão mais lenta, diferente de comer apenas carboidratos.
Ele ainda ressalva que os participantes do estudo tiveram também uma melhora no aumento de vitamina E – que ajuda na saúde do coração – em relação ao grupo controle.
