Why walnuts are good for you
-
Nuts are healthy and the healthiest nut is the walnut. Walnuts are not called a superfood for nothing. Not only do they help against stress and high blood pressure. They also reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and improve sperm quality in men.
-
Walnuts are packed with good nutrients. In addition to omega-3 fats and fiber, walnuts contain magnesium, vitamin E, polyphenols, proteins, potassium, plant sterols, vitamin B6, arginine, melatonin, copper and zinc.
Antioxidants
-
Compared to other nuts, walnuts have the most antioxidants. These can protect cells in the human body against free radicals. Walnuts contain a lot of fats, but these are mainly healthy unsaturated fats. These help lower blood cholesterol levels and thus reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Bowel movement

Do you regularly suffer from constipation? Walnuts can help with that. Adding the fiber-rich walnut to your diet daily will improve your bowel movements.
Stress
-
American scientists have found that eating a handful of walnuts every day also helps against stress and high blood pressure. Subjects who followed a diet with walnuts on the menu were found to respond better to stress.
Sperm
-
Another study shows that walnuts are also good for sperm. Researchers at the University of California found that men who eat walnuts every day for 12 weeks significantly improve sperm quality. Probably the omega-3 fats contained in the nuts contribute to this.

Does walnuts make you fat?
-
Walnuts may be healthy, but many dieters are deleting nuts from the menu. Because they think nuts make you fat. But that's not true at all. Research shows that people who regularly eat nuts have a lower body weight, BMI and a slimmer waist than people who do not eat nuts. Just keep it with one hand, about 50 grams of walnuts, per day.
