Description
Walnuts are a type of tree nut that is widely consumed around the world. They are known for their distinctively shaped, hard outer shell and their delicious, buttery flavour. Walnuts are a good source of healthy fats, protein, fiber, and various vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E, magnesium, and copper.
Eating walnuts has been linked to several health benefits. For example, walnuts may help reduce the risk of heart disease by lowering cholesterol levels and improving blood pressure. They may also have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases like cancer and Alzheimer’s.
Walnuts can be enjoyed in a variety of ways, such as raw or roasted, as a snack or as an ingredient in baked goods, salads, and other dishes. Walnuts can also be blended into a smoothie or used as a topping for yoghurt or cooked oats.
