How accepted is the claim that eating nuts can help reduce body weight?

When a person's intake of calories exceeds his output, he gains weight. Nuts are rich in calories. They have a very high calorie density, much higher than one would expect. Just 33 grams of salted mixed nuts or 35 grams of sliced almonds, for example, contain about 200 calories. To put that in perspective, that's about the same calorie density as fried bacon and a greater calorie density than potato chips (37 grams per 200 calories), M&M candies (40 grams per 200 calories), and Snicker's bars (41 grams per 200 calories). Foods with very low calorie densities are celery (1425 g/200cal), broccoli (588 g/200cal), apples (385 g/200cal), grapes (290 g/200cal), and even smoked turkey breast (204 g/200cal), to name a few. There are, though, studies (like the one at the link below) that indicate that eating nuts (pistachios in particular) in moderation can improve cholesterol levels, without any weight gain. Again, it's not a way to lose weight, but weight gain shouldn't be the show-stopper for eating nuts in moderation.

In a word, no. Nothing can help you lose weight but reducing your caloric intake so that it is lower than your expended calories each day. 3,500 calories in deficit will result in a one pound weight loss. However, some drinks may help you reduce your weight by allowing you to consume them in place of traditional meals with more calories.
