Ahhhh…walnuts! How many ways do I love thee? Let me count the ways:
1. Your beautiful shape reminds me of my brain. In fact, your high concentration of omega-3 fats is important for my brain cells to function properly.
2. You are romantic. You protect my heart with your monosaturated fats, which are important for cardiovascular health.
3. You keep me calm and collected. You help me control my high blood pressure, with your omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Walnuts are very versatile, but we love them best in their birthday suit. Natural and without anything on it!
