Properties: Thanks to vitamin E, walnuts are small pearls of youth which fight the action of free-radicals and act as an excellent antioxidant. Walnuts are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids and mineral salts, such as zinc, calcium, potassium, copper and iron. They are particularly high in magnesium and therefore are considered one of the natural food supplements of this mineral. Walnuts are also important source of vitamin E and folic acid. The omega 3 acids contained in walnuts help lowering the “bad” cholesterol level in the blood, preventing arteriosclerosis and most likely fighting stress.

Diet: The most specific property of walnuts derives from arginine, an amino acid that makes it perfect for those who practice sport: walnuts are in fact a very energetic food and dilate blood vessels allowing to bring more oxygen and nutrients to muscles and improving physical performance.
