Walnuts and Brain Health Benefits

Recently I spoke about the benefits of walnuts for cardiovascular health, and researchers from New York are showing us that they are also good for brain health.

In a review of the literature, the researchers found that diets where walnuts were consumed daily, can:

Improve cognitive function, memory, and verbal reasoning.
They can also improve learning skills, motor coordination, and anxiety-related behavior.
They can also decrease the oxidative stress caused by Amyloid Beta in the brain.
And they can slow down the progression of cognitive decline and dementia.

Walnuts are healthy!
