Hi there,

 I've heard that nuts are an excellent snack to replace crisps and chocolate. I now have a bowl of nuts on my living room table and I find myself picking at them throughout the day which I believe is good for you. Any thoughts, or am I just being nuts!
 

They are certainly better than crisps and chocolate - a couple of handfulls of nuts once a day as a snack between meals is fine, but picking at them all day you could easily get way too many calories.  i'd put them away and just have some once a day.

I think they're better than high carb snacks, but do have lots of calories.

Even too much of good stuff is bad for you - go easy on the nuts.

i always thought they had loads of calories.
