New book, Health Benefits of Pecans, compiles 'good news'

摘要

Health Benefits of Pecans, a new book released in August 2013, summarizes the scientific evidence that pecans and other nuts improve heart health, brain function, and longevity while helping to prevent weight gain. And good news about pecans and totalhealth is good economic news for the pecan industry. With this in mind, 3 university scientists summarize the evidence that frequent pecan consumption improves health in their new book, Health Benefits of Pecans, which is available from the The Olde Pecan Bookstore (see Page 37). The authors include James L. Hargrove and Diane K. Hartle, who are retired faculty members from the University of Georgia, and Phillip Greenspan, a current faculty member at the university.
