WASHINGTON: Walnuts are the no. 1 nut for heart health, said the US research that was presented at the American Chemical Society annual meeting.
That is because walnuts were found to have more antioxidants — and better-quality antioxidants — than other popular nuts tested, the research said.
”Nuts are good for heart. They can lower cholesterol, reduce the oxidative stress caused by the free radicals, and decrease unhealthy inflammation.
Walnuts have more, better antioxidants than peanuts, pistachios, other nuts, the researcher said.
More than a decade of scientific evidence shows that incorporating walnuts in a healthy diet reduces the risk of heart disease by improving blood vessel elasticity and plaque accumulation.
Walnuts have also been shown to aid in the lowering LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) and the C-Reactive Protein (CRP). CRP was recently recognized as an independent marker and predictor of heart disease.
