"Pistachios contain an impressive amount of nutrients including B vitamins, magnesium, and potassium," Jillian said. "Choosing pistachios over other unhealthy snack choices can help you lose weight, manage blood sugar levels, and give your HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol) a boost."
Amy added that pistachios are high in heart-healthy fats and fibre, which will keep you feeling fuller for longer. Also, if you buy them in the shells, it will take you longer to eat them and slow down your eating, which will add to feelings of fullness.
