California Walnuts are the Way to go this International Yoga Day

New Delhi, June 21, 2018: While India aspires to become a fitter nation, this World Yoga Day let’s embark on a healthy journey by adding the goodness of California walnuts to our daily diet. Rich in antioxidants and an excellent source of Alpha-Linolenic Acid (ALA) – the plant-based form of omega-3 – California walnuts are the go-to-nut for every health concern.

The most versatile of all nuts, here’s why choosing to enjoy a handful of naturally nutritious California walnuts and practicing Yoga can help you crack the path to wellness.

Heart Health

Your heart is special to someone, so keep it safe and healthy by having diet enriched with walnuts. They provide heart-health benefits and are recognized as one of the first whole foods to receive a qualified health claim about their heart-health benefits from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

Cancer

Walnuts offer a variety of important nutrients, including good fats, making them an ideal ingredient for plant-based meals. A healthy eating pattern that includes plant-based foods such as vegetables, fruits, grains, oils, nuts and seeds, as well as protein and fat-free or low-fat dairy, is associated with a reduced risk of certain types of cancer.

Diabetes

For many reasons, walnuts can be a nutritious food for people living with diabetes or metabolic syndrome. Individuals with diabetes or metabolic syndrome often have conditions such as high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol, high triglycerides, and obesity, which increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.

Reproductive Health

Findings from walnut health studies have provided encouraging results that walnuts may play an integral role in men’s reproductive health. Therefore, adding these to one’s daily diet may help combat infertility concerns.

Weight

Walnuts predominantly made up of good fats, play an important part of a healthy diet that doesn’t contribute to weight gain or hinder weight loss goals. Incorporating them into meals and snacks is a simple and convenient way to add important nutrients to your diet. Walnuts are also rich in protein, vitamins, fiber and minerals. Any successful weight management plan must include satiety factor, so walnuts are undoubtedly one of the right foods to consider if you are into a weight management program.
