Walnuts are one of the oldest and most nutritious foods known to mankind. They have been part of the human diet for thousands of years, but science is only now beginning to realize their full potential. Doctors confirm that regular consumption of walnuts has a profound positive effect on the human body and can even extend life.

According to studies published in medical journals such as The New England Journal of Medicine, people who eat walnuts 3–5 times a week have up to a 30% lower risk of cardiovascular disease. The reason is their rich content of omega-3 fatty acids, which maintain the flexibility of blood vessels and regulate levels of “bad” cholesterol.
