About Handful of wallnuts
A handful of walnuts—about one ounce or 14 halves—is a nutrient-packed snack with roots in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. Walnuts are rich in heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids, which support brain function and reduce inflammation. They also contain protein, fiber, vitamins like B6 and E, and minerals such as magnesium and copper, making them a staple for balanced diets. Their vitamin and antioxidant content can promote skin health and protect against oxidative stress. Though high in healthy fats, walnuts are calorie-dense, so portion control is key for those watching their caloric intake. Their versatility allows them to complement both savory and sweet dishes, enhancing salads, desserts, and baked goods. Consuming walnuts in moderation contributes to improved cardiovascular health, better digestion, and sustained energy levels.
