Don't Roast: Almonds &amp; other nuts, when roasted, are usually roasted in oil.  Most often these oils are high in a fatty acid called linoleic acid (LA). 
LA favors inflammation. In a patient with cancer LA helps the cancer grow.  LA is metabolized to omega-6 fatty acids which are far too high in the American public.  Acrylamide and asparinine in roasted nuts is of concern re cancer production. Go raw.

Accepted Answer

Not recommended.: Reviewing your profile, it appears that you are already on a long list of supplements and medications. Although there are no clear-cut contraindications to adding this mixture to your current medication regimen, there certainly is potential for drug interactions. Given that there are no clinical trials proving that plexus slim has any positive effects, i would be hesitant to recommend hit in this setting.

Question 9

does "dry roasting" almonds affect the omega-3 fats?

Accepted Answer

Great question.: In a small study performed years ago raw almonds were compared to roasted almonds and almond butter measuring their effect on lipids.  All products were helpful with raw and roasted almonds besting the almond butter.  With that said, while still healthy, roasting does increase the oxidation of fatty acids which is not considered a beneficial change.  So raw almonds best, roasted good, butter okay.
