NUTS

ORGANIC GF RAW WALNUTS

Walnuts have a great combination of fats that may be particularly good for cardiovascular health. They contain a lot of polyunsaturated fatty acids, specifically alpha-linolenic acids (plant sourced omage 3's) which are associated with health benefits for the heart, the brain, and also the reduction of inflammation in the body. We get more than enough Omega 6's in our diets but not enough omega 3's, this imbalance can increase inflammation. So in a nutshell, they are tiny power houses made up of protein, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals.

Bit!

Nuts & seeds contain fats, protein & carbohydrates. The fat content of nuts & seeds can become rancid easily under conditions such as light exposure, being exposed to air, heat & aging. Rancid fats are toxic to the body & add more burden to your liver. If you would like the freshest nuts & seeds then please avoid buying from a bin in bulk form. Try to purchase in pre-sealed packaging that is not clear. The darker the packaging the better. Always check the best before date. Smart health food stores will store their nuts & seeds in refrigerators. Once home store your nuts and seeds in the fridge or freezer, yes freezer ;)
