The Harvard Heart Letter reported that in a long term study of 26,000 people who consumed tree nuts (pecans) frequently (at least 5 times per week) had roughly half the risk of a heart attack or a coronary death as those who rarely ate them. People who ate a portion of nuts even once a week had about 25% lower risk of heart disease than those who didn't.
To keep pecans fresh year round place them in a freezer (they will stay good for 2 years) or in the refrigerator for 6 months. When you take the pecans out of the freezer you do not have to let them thaw.
