Walnut Oil for the Heart

Blood pressure becomes stable, heart rate normal, and cholesterol production reduced.

Walnut Oil for Health

Walnut oil is increasingly used in the complex treatment of diseases of the digestive system, such as gastritis, colitis, stomach ulcers, and also helps to lower the acidity of the stomach. It has an antitumor effect, increases the resistance to radiation exposure, and removes radionuclides.

Walnut oil is used for the prevention of bone and joint diseases since it supports the structure of the intra-articular fluid and helps to restore it. It heals wounds and cracks and is used in the treatment of psoriasis and eczema. In children, walnut oil participates in the formation of enamels, affects carbohydrate metabolism, forms the nuclei of nerve cells, and contributes to full mental, physical, and puberty development.

Regular consumption is also very beneficial for people suffering from hypertension, atherosclerosis, ischemic heart disease, diabetes, and is used for hyperthyroidism. Also recommended for varicose veins.

Walnut Oil for Libido

Why Walnut Oil Instead of Nuts?

Walnut kernels are harmful if there is a cough, bronchitis, diathesis, allergies, asthma, pneumonia, urticaria, eczema, psoriasis or atopic dermatitis. Walnuts are not recommended for people with gastritis, colitis, enterocolitis, stomach ulcers or duodenal ulcers. Excessive consumption of walnuts can cause headaches and even vomiting. Meanwhile, walnut oil has a therapeutic effect on these diseases. The difference between the use of nuts and oil is explained by the presence of coarse fiber in the kernels and a film-husk covering the kernel, which, due to the high content of tannins and bitterness, interferes with the work of the pancreas and liver.

Walnut Oil for Cooking 

Walnut oil has a mild flavour and nutty aroma. It is perfect for cold salads of any kind. You can gently enrich grilled fish, steaks, poultry, and pasta with a drizzle of walnut oil. This oil is not recommended for cooking hot dishes as omega fatty acids are sensitive to heat which changes their beneficial composition.
