WALNUTS
Ancient Romans and other cultures threw walnuts instead of rice at weddings because they believed walnuts held aphrodisiac powers. They also used in in fertility rites. On a side note, chick peas (garbanzos) are also viewed as an aphrodisiac for men. Chick peas are the main ingredient in hoummous (hummus) bi tahini. Pine nuts have also been viewed as an aphrodisiac for over 2000 years. Whether these three foods help you or not, they are a very tasty part of the ingredients we use to make our Lebanese food.
Resembling the human brain in shape, this extremely nutritious nut is naturally low in sodium, contains about 10% dietary fiber and protein, and includes important vitamins and minerals such as thiamin, folacin, iron, zinc, magnesium and potassium.
At 7:1, walnuts have the highest ratio of polyunsaturated to saturated fats as compared to other nuts, Kenyon says. "The good side to this is that essential polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linolenic and linoleic, have been found to effectively reduce serum cholesterol by more than 10% in some people. The downside is that this nut tends to undergo oxidation more readily under unfavorable storage conditions, and this results in the production of compounds causing off-flavors."
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has affirmed the health claim, "Supportive but not conclusive research shows that eating 1.5 ounces per day of walnuts, as part of a low saturated fat and low cholesterol diet and not resulting in increased caloric intake, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease." This FDA decision comes in response to a petition filed by the California Walnut Commission, which highlights a body of international scientific research substantiating the specific benefit of consuming walnuts as part of a heart healthy diet in reducing the risk of heart disease. The body of evidence suggests that the nutritional composition of walnuts contribute to these heart health benefits.
