The walnuts are a source of longevity

They reduce the risk of stroke
- Reduce the risk of heart attacks
- Reduce total and “bad” LDL cholesterol in the blood
- They slow down and reduce bone loss
- At the same time contribute to the development of more than 30 neurotransmitters for the proper functioning of the brain

In their research, the scientists examined the content of various types of nuts in antioxidants.
According to the results, walnuts are ranked above peanuts, almonds, pecans and other nuts, as they contain twice the level of antioxidant polyphenols, helping the body fight free radicals that destroy cells and cause disease.
"Our suggestion is that people should eat 7 nuts a day. "Those who eat only seven nuts a day consume 3.7 mg more vitamin E, 5 grams more fiber, 73 mg more calcium, 95 mg more magnesium, 157 mg less sodium and 260 mg more potassium," said. Joe Vinson.

Finally, nuts such as almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts and cashews are also rich in unsaturated fatty acids, vitamins and proteins, but scientists warn that the problem is that people do not eat enough.
