    Walnuts: Benefits and how to include them in your diet
    Did you know walnuts are known to keep your heart and brain healthier?

    Walnuts are single-seeded stone fruits and come with countless health benefits. They contain healthy omega-3 fatty acids called alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) and are known to keep your heart and brain healthier. You can eat walnuts in both raw and roasted form and are largely found in vegans and vegetarian diets. Let's discover the benefits of walnuts and how to include them in your diet.

    Walnuts are rich in antioxidants

    Walnuts have heightened levels of antioxidant properties as compared to all other nuts. They incorporate high levels of Vitamin E, melatonin, and polyphenols. Studies have proven that they help in the prevention of oxidative damage of bad cholesterol that can cause cardiovascular diseases like atherosclerosis—the hardening and narrowing of arteries due to plaque build-up. It can also lead to the formation of blood clots.

    They promote good bone health

    Walnuts are a great source of the mineral copper that is extremely crucial in order to maintain bone density. They are also an excellent source of manganese, which is important to prevent osteoporosis, a health disease where bones become weak and brittle and are more prone to fracture. Walnuts also contain magnesium that can promote strong bones.

    Here are some other benefits of walnuts

    Studies suggest that daily consumption of walnuts can enhance sperm quality (vitality and movement) in men. Pregnant women can reduce the chances of developing gestational diabetes. They are also beneficial in preventing the risk of coronary heart diseases. The presence of Vitamin E, folate, and ellagic acid in walnuts can also improve your brain health.
