The effect of increased EF combined with the impact
of varying macronutrient rich snacks on body weight
control needs to be evaluated. Studies that introduced the
frequent consumption of nuts (almonds) in overweight
and obese adults, either as a part of a habitual diet or an
energy-controlled diet, resulted in improved body weight
control and improved blood lipid levels (Spiller et al.,
1998; Sabate, 2003; Fraser et al., 2002; Wien et al., 2003).
Almonds are an easy-to-eat, readily available snack. They
have a higher protein content than other snacks and
potentially could promote satiety at a lower level of
energy intake. Almonds are both energy dense snacks
(high monounsaturated fatty acids) and high in fibre.
Therefore any effect on appetite may not be entirely
attributable to their protein content
