In 2016, according to the WHO, India reported 63 percent of total deaths due to non-communicable diseases, and 27 percent were attributed to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Of those, heart attack and stroke are two of the most common causes of death in our country. Now those are pretty scary numbers, and they are only growing by the year.

You can blame our fast-paced lifestyle or our family’s medical history for the complaints of high cholesterol, but both you and I run the danger of developing heart disease. Fortunately, a number of factors enable us to reduce our risk of CVD and pursue a heart-healthy lifestyle. Let’s explore how on this World Heart Day in detail:

How California walnuts may benefit the health of your heart?

A handful of California walnuts, together with a balanced, nutrient-rich diet and regular exercise, is a crucial step, according to study. This merits a place on your plate because it may help lessen your chance of developing heart disease.

These miracle nuts include polyunsaturated fats, also known as “good fats,” and ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), which may lower blood pressure and lower cholesterol levels, two key risk factors for heart disease. These nutritional giants are also known to aid in reducing inflammation and enhancing blood vessel health. A new scientific study published in Advances in Nutrition also contends that a heart-healthy diet should include foods high in plant-based omega-3 ALA, such as walnuts.

Walnuts give the right crunch for anytime snacks to poha, upma, or kachumbar.

Walnuts are an excellent addition to a low-calorie diet, and including them into your morning smoothie is another fantastic option.

Each of us has a right to decide what is best for us. And you need the correct information to make such selections. It’s time to go bananas for walnuts now that you’ve read about their health advantages!

1FDA authorised claim: Some evidence suggests that consuming 1.5 ounces of walnuts daily as part of a diet reduced in saturated fat and cholesterol, without increasing calorie consumption, may lower the risk of coronary heart disease. However, this evidence is not conclusive. FDA in the United States, March 2004. 18g of total fat, 2.5g of monounsaturated fat, 13g of polyunsaturated fat, and 2.5g of alpha-linolenic acid, a plant-based omega-3, are included in one ounce of walnuts.

A low-saturated-fat, low-cholesterol diet that includes 1.5 ounces of walnuts per day, without increasing calorie consumption, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, according to some but not all supporting evidence. (FDA) Walnuts contain 18 grammes of total fat per ounce, 2.5 grammes of monounsaturated fat, 13 grammes of polyunsaturated fat, and 2.5 grammes of alpha-linolenic acid, a plant-based omega-3.
