Walnuts,
the new super food! Read the BBC
NEWS ARTICLE
Recent news
suggests that eating a handful of walnuts after a meal
may actually help to eliminate the damage that meals
high in fat do to arteries. High fat meals disrupt the
production of nitric oxide by the inner lining of the
arteries. Nitric oxide is needed to keep the blood vessels
flexible. Walnuts contain arginine, which is an amino
acid used by the body to produce nitric oxide. This
study, which appears in the Journal of the American
College of Cardiology, shows that walnuts have more
health benefits than olive oil. Olive oil is known to
help stop the hardening of arteries, but walnuts not
only help keep the arteries soft they also help to keep
them flexible.
