Nut consumption and heart health and overall health

I am going to be bringing you some authentic research published recently in our prestigious journals regarding nutrition.
We will start with benefits of nut/ peanut consumption.
High intake of nuts has been linked to a reduced risk of mortality .
Nut consumption was associated with decreased overall and cardiovascular disease mortality across different ethnic groups and all socioeconomic groups.
Consumption of nuts,specially peanuts given their affordability may be considered a cost effective measure to improve cardiovascular health.
JAMA Intern Medicine 2015;755-766
