Before                                                 Word                                                                 After  

  • (a) regularly                                    can                                                                   help   
  • (b) of                                              the                                                    cardiovascular

Thus the correct paragraph is

Consuming peanuts regularly can help reduce risk of the cardiovascular diseases without weight gain. Peanuts are the rich source of mono-saturated fatty acids,  magnesium and copper, arginine and fibre, all of them have risk-reducing properties. Peanuts are rich in the type of fats that actually reduce cardiovascular disease risk and its strong satiating properties.
