Korean pine nuts can help curb appetitePosted Apr 12th 2006 1:35PM by Joe DiStefanoFiled under: Science, Nuts/seeds, Far East, AmericaI've always seen nuts as a healthful snack, but have
long thought they were a strict no-no for dieters. Seems that may not always be the case.A new study reveals
that Korean pine nuts (pictured) can help curb your appetite. A lipid compound in the nuts helps to produce a feeling of
fullness, according to Dr. Jennifer L. Causey of Lipid Nutrition. Full disclosure: the Idaho-based company manufactures
PinnoThin pine oil, which it used in the study.All I know is it's too bad the pignoli cookies I've been
scarfing down at my local pastry shop are made with Italian pine nuts.[photo: Wikipedia]
