The health effects of nuts are fairly overstated especially since many of them are high in PUFAs.
Google tells me that PUFAs == Polyunsaturated fatty acids
Since when are polyunsaturated fatty acids considered unhealthy? As I recall, the real enemy is saturated fats.
I think my main point was about reducing all sugar, and reducing the intake of garbage carbs.
"Although nuts are high in fat, it’s mainly healthier unsaturated fat. They contain protein, B vitamins, vitamin E and minerals, including iron, potassium, selenium, magnesium, zinc and copper."[0]

I get your main point. My main point is that unsaturated fats, specifically poly-unsaturated fats, are definitely not better than saturated fats and we shouldn't be telling people to eat more nuts. The evidence linking saturated fat to heart disease has been weak, and organizations like the American Heart Association have promoted this claim while also promoting crap products like Crisco while taking money from Proctor & Gamble.
"The idea that saturated fats cause heart disease, called the diet-heart hypothesis, was introduced in the 1950s, based on weak, associational evidence"[0]

Polyunsaturated fats like omega-3 and omega-6 are beneficial.
