Forget the kale! It's nuts! (Really. It's nuts.)

STUDY TIES NUTS TO LOWER CANCER, HEART DEATH RISK

DALLAS (AP) -- Help yourself to some nuts this holiday season: Regular nut eaters were less likely to die of cancer or heart disease - in fact, were less likely to die of any cause - during a 30-year Harvard study.

[Immortal italics my own.]

Me, I'm waiting for the study that says ketchup is the magic elixir. That's when I quit reading food stuff and just pig out.

(Also:

The National Institutes of Health and the International Tree Nut Council Nutrition Research & Education Foundation sponsored the study, but the nut group had no role in designing it or reporting the results.

Right. Is there a ketchup foundation? I hope there is.)
