Heart Healthy Foods Series: Walnuts
A small handful of walnuts a day may lower your cholesterol and ease inflammation in your heart’s arteries. Walnuts are packed with omega-3s, monounsaturated fats, and fiber. The benefits come when walnuts replace bad fats, those in chips and cookies.
Tip: Walnut oil has omega-3s, too; try it in salad dressings.
