Walnuts have a rich chemical composition that is difficult to compare with other types of nuts. Although they are healthy, there are certain cases when you should refrain from eating them.

According to experts, walnuts have a positive effect on the body due to their vitamin and mineral composition. They improve brain function, memory, and information assimilation thanks to B vitamins, iodine, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids. The kernels of walnuts are even similar to the human brain.

These nuts are rich in iron, which is why they are often called anti-anemic. They contain vegetable protein, which helps build cells.

B vitamins, omega-3 fatty acids, zinc and iodine have a positive effect on the condition of hair, skin and nail plate.

Walnuts are known for their beneficial properties against headaches and cramps, and vitamin E helps to reduce age spots and slow down the aging process.

These nuts also help to improve blood condition thanks to the potassium and magnesium in their composition, and also contain the hormone melatonin, which helps to fall asleep easily.
