🌰 Walnut Health and Beauty Benefits
Walnuts are one of the smaller, less-assuming super foods. The humble walnut is often neglected when it comes to assessing the many health-boosting foods we eat.
Nuts are an amazing source of protein for non-meat eaters. Some nuts (like walnuts) have even more health benefits than most of us are aware of, leading to their categorization as ‘Superfoods!’
Merely one-quarter a cup of walnuts provides more than 100 percent of the daily recommended value of plant-based omega-3 fats.

In addition to high amounts of copper, manganese, molybdenum, and biotin. These paleo apple pie bites are filled with just the right about of walnuts to provide your body with omega-3 fats.
Walnuts may help reduce not only the risk of prostate cancer but breast cancer as well. These sensational nuts also contain the amino acid l-arginine. These benefit individuals with heart disease due to the many vascular benefits.
Walnuts contain several unique and powerful antioxidants that are available in only a few commonly eaten foods.
Walnuts the Impressive Nut
This impressive little nut contains protein and healthy fats which help regulate your blood sugar levels. A beautiful benefit of adding walnuts into your diet is the compound, alpha-linolenic acid, which is powerful when it comes to strengthening the skin.
Selenium in walnuts is important for a healthy scalp. PUFAS, polyunsaturated fatty acids, contained in walnuts, help dry the scalp due to their anti-inflammatory properties.
They also have been proven to improve sperm quality, help with weight control, and offer support for brain health and type 2 diabetes.
