Go on a nut diet and find out. It would gag you shortly. :>) Might be worth a try if I could find some evidence... "In spite of these considerations, these studies show that when nuts are consumed as a replacement food, there is no net weight gain. More striking is the fact that some studies found that when nuts are added to the diet, there is no associated increase in body weight even when total energy intake is substantially greater (Morgan & Clayshulte, 2000; Morgan et al, 2002). For example, adding 48 g of walnuts to the diet for 6 weeks did not increase weight although energy intake increased by 1661 kJ/day (Almario et al, 2001). The duration of the nut intervention in these trials is relatively short, however, and gives no indication of the impact of nut intake in the long-term. Only one intervention study has shown a negative effect on body weight. In this study of normal-weight subjects, adding 100 g of almonds per day to the usual diet for 4 weeks led to a slight but significant increase in body weight (0.9 kg for men, 0.3 kg for women) (Lovejoy et al, 2002)." nature.com
