How to use
Raw organic walnuts are a traditional functional food of the Mediterranean Diet .
According to numerous studies and scientific tests conducted in recent years, the consumption of raw walnuts can boast many health benefits , thanks to their protective fats, minerals and vitamins . While roasting and cooking nuts cause the oxidation of these fats, which become harmful.
In a healthy and balanced diet, nutritionists recommend consuming 3-4 raw walnuts per day.
Individual needs can vary depending on many parameters, for a personalized food plan consult a good dietitian or nutritionist.
In January my wife purchased from you, among other things, bleggio walnuts: large, well toasted, healthy and with an excellent flavour. A month later I ordered more, same type, but they arrived small, and many with dark (sick) and bitter pulp. Another thing. At 14 euros per kilo it doesn't suit me.
