Nuts + Beer

The benefit: These two pub staples can decrease your risk of a heart attack.

The science: Numerous studies have shown that nuts boost HDL (good) cholesterol levels while reducing the "bad" LDL. And it's thought that alcohol acts as a blood thinner, helping prevent the formation of clots that can block bloodflow to your heart. What's more, Swedish researchers found that the fat and fiber in nuts slow the absorption of alcohol into your bloodstream. This can help smooth out the effects of moderate alcohol consumption. For best results, try to eat about 15 minutes before taking your first libation.

The take-home message: Moderation is the key here. Up to 3 ounces of nuts and one or two glasses of beer or wine a day have been shown to reduce heart-disease risk without leading to weight gain.
