The Benefits of Pecans

One of the main ingredients in these fat bombs are the nutrient-packed pecans. Pecans have been shown to help maintain a healthy weight. The healthy fats in pecans are directly correlated with grehlin (a hormone responsible for weight loss).

Pecans are also an abundant source of manganese. Manganese is important for many reasons, but plays a strong role in reducing weight in obese individuals. Manganese also plays a key role in the speed and quick reaction in synaptic activity in the brain — which means being deficient in manganese can lead to mood problems, trouble focusing, learning disabilities, mental illness and even possibly epilepsy. [*]

Along with manganese, pecans are an extremely high source of antioxidants. One study showed that eating pecans increased the amount of antioxidants found in the blood stream a day after they were consumed. [*]

  1. Love this recipe. Didn’t have pumpkin pie spice so did 1.5 tsp cinnamon and 1.5 tsp nutmeg and it was great.

    Roasting the pecans is important
