Walnut Kernel – اخروٹ

Walnuts are a type of tree nut, typically harvested in the fall. The walnut tree produces a drupe, or drupaceous nut, which is surrounded by a green, fleshy husk. The husk turns brown and splits open as the nut matures. The edible kernel of the walnut is encased in a hard, woody shell.

Some of the potential health benefits of consuming walnuts include:

• Lowering cholesterol levels: Walnuts contain high levels of polyunsaturated fats, which can help lower LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and improve HDL (good) cholesterol levels.
• Reducing inflammation: Walnuts are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which have anti-inflammatory properties.
• Supporting heart health: The omega-3 fatty acids in walnuts can help protect the heart by reducing the risk of arrhythmias and improving blood lipid levels.
• Boosting brain health: Walnuts are a good source of antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids, both of which are linked to improved brain health.
• Improving blood sugar control: Walnuts can help improve blood sugar control in people with diabetes.
• Cancer prevention: Some studies have shown that the antioxidants in walnuts may help protect against certain types of cancer, such as breast and prostate cancer.
