It increases the good cholesterol in the body and decreases the bad cholesterol i.e., LDL (low-density lipoproteins). Including almond oil in the daily diet (on salads, with chutney, in smoothies, etc.), will be a better way to get all the good benefits of the almond in a quicker way.

 In fact, this study concluded that the lipid-lowering effect of almonds (i.e., lowering of bad cholesterol) is mediated primarily by the almond oil fraction of these nuts.

However, the favorable changes in lipid profiles found in the current study suggest that in healthy subjects, consumption of almonds or their oil can be an effective strategy to lower total and LDL cholesterol while preventing the HDL cholesterol-lowering and potential TG elevation associated with low fat, high carbohydrate diets.

Furthermore, the number of almonds consumed by these subjects was much less than in most reported studies and was easily incorporated into the daily diet of our study subjects. Finally, nuts contain a host of other nutrients and components that have the potential to reduce the risk for CVD (Cardiovascular disease), beyond the limited number of risk factors monitored in this study.
