What:  A pilot study by the University of California-Davis (US) investigated the impact of daily almond snacking on facial wrinkles in healthy, postmenopausal women. The promising findings have already inspired additional research to learn more about almonds and healthy skin.1  

Why Almonds? For consumers seeking a natural approach to health and well-being, almonds are appealing due to their overall healthy nutrient package, including essential fatty acids, polyphenols and antioxidant vitamin E. The vitamin E in almonds is alpha-tocopherol, which is the only form that is recognized to meet human requirements2.
