Walnuts | Arthritis Information
....has many potential health benefits ranging from cardiovascular protection, to the promotion of better cognitive function, to anti-inflammatory benefits helpful in asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis. In addition, walnuts contain an antioxidant compound called ellagic acid that supports the immune system and appears to have several anticancer properties.
I remember someone posting an article about how people with RA have a higher risk of heart problems. When I ran into this and saw all the great heart benefits thought I'd pass it along...
love walnuts........
I'm not crazy about them, but I don't really dislike them either. Just put them on the shopping list.They're really good if you eat a couple with a bite of banana or a few raisens. Plus, they're very filling, so a few goes a long way and keeps you full for a long time.Walnuts have omega 3's too! I make a little snack baggie to throw in my purse with a serving of walnuts and one of dried cranberries (about a handful each). It is tasty and keeps me from eating junk food!
Thanks I will pick some up tomorrow.I got a bag of walnuts today. I thought I would try your mix Waddie except I also added dried cherries with the dried cranberries. Yummy!
