这是农历新年以来到现在为止剩下的唯一一盒别人送的佳品（是男友的姐姐送的）- 杏仁饼。本来并没有对它有什么特别期望，都是因为之前吃过这种之类的中式杏仁饼，不和我胃口，但这个嘛，还好，比想象中好很多哦。
懂得欣赏杏仁的人好像不多。我的王子饮食界的，特别爱杏仁茶，而我，喜欢西方口味重点儿，杏仁曲奇！他经常哄我：杏仁茶会让皮肤变漂亮哦！
让我们看看，杏仁的魅力
预防癌症 - 杏仁是低饱和脂肪，并含有许多其他保护性营养素，好像钙和镁，有强骨的作用。也有助于防止心血管疾病，甚至癌症。
降低心脏病发作的危险 - 一星期食用坚果5次可以减少心脏病发作的风险高达50％。
降低胆固醇 - 研究表示杏仁对血液中胆固醇水平有降低的效果。
The Power of Almonds
Cancer Prevention - Almonds are low in saturated fat and contain many other protective nutrients such as calcium and magnesium which can help to maintain strong bones, vitamin E and compounds called phytochemicals, which may help protect against cardiovascular disease and even cancer.
Reduce Heart Attack Risk - Study showed those who consumed nuts 5 times a week had a 50% reduction in risk of heart attack.
Lower Cholesterol - Study showed that almonds added to the diet had a favorable effect on blood cholesterol levels and that none of the study groups experienced weight gain in the study.
