A handful of nuts a day could keep the grim reaper away, according to new research. A sweeping analysis of current research shows that people who eat at least 20g of nuts each day are less likely to develop potentially fatal conditions such as cancer and heart disease. (Provided you don't have nut allergies, of course!)

Peanut allergy is real, and can be life threatening for a lot of kids. For years, parents were told to be cautious about introducing peanuts to babies, just in case too-eager peanut feeding was linked to allergies.
