Question

What's the healthiest nuts to eat?

Answer 1

Walnuts: The Healthiest Nut

Recent studies have been building a strong case for the health benefits of walnuts. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has officially confirmed walnut-specific health claims. The process began last July when FDA affirmed the health claim, “Supportive but not conclusive research shows that eating 1.5 ounces per day of walnuts as part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease. See nutrition information for fat content.” The FDA’s decision came in response to a petition filed by the California Walnut Commission.



These nuts also host a multitude of other important vitamins, minerals, protein and antioxidants. In fact, walnuts are cited as the largest single source of antioxidants next to rose hips, according to a study from the University of Minnesota and University of Oslo.
