Macadamia nuts

Macadamia nuts have the most saturated fat of all nuts, but 80 percent of their fat content is monounsaturated, which has been shown to lower triglycerides and have beneficial effects on LDL and HDL cholesterol.

When to grab a handful: At breakfast. “They contain fiber, protein, and healthy fats, meaning they will help your breakfast stick with you for longer-lasting energy,” says Upton.
