The big question, how or does eating nuts affect my weight? Nuts and Weight Loss Given the number of calories in nuts, you wouldn't expect to lose weight by adding them to your diet. Researchers have found that nuts don't tend to cause weight gain and can even result in weight loss. In a 2010 article published in the "Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition," the authors note that your body excretes 10 to 15 percent of the calories in nuts and likely burns an additional 10... percent of the calories through the increased metabolism created by eating nuts. Once people consume nuts, they are likely to consume less of other foods, resulting in a balanced intake of energy. In some cases, eating nuts creates an energy deficit, as dieters who eat nuts tend to lose greater amounts of weight than those who do not, the researchers note.

Que mas libertad que el poder estar saludable fisicamente, emocionalmente y mentalmente! Con mucho amor a todos nuestros amigos y familia, Tucker Pecans

Today I would like to give tribute to introduce you to Bart Tucker. He’s the man who started this pecan journey over 20 years ago when he planted his first orchard. Without him Tucker Pecans wouldn't exist! It was his dream of someday packaging his own nuts and pecan products and selling them locally and worldwide that has inspired our family into starting Tucker Pecans. This is a picture of him in front of one of his machines at work. This machine helps him separate pecans from leaves, rocks and other debris from the orchard.
