Commercial peanuts and common
peanut butters are made with additives, sugars, and GMO-oils that have been
linked to numerous health problems. Peanuts are susceptible to the mold
Aspergillus flavus which produces a carcinogenic substance called
aflatoxin. Peanut oil causes clogging of arteries and peanut butter can
harbor salmonella and cause salmonellosis.

A study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition- May 1994, showed that those whose diets included nuts, either walnuts or almonds, were able to lower their LDL cholesterol by 9 to 10%. Another study that appeared in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association- July 1995, found that walnuts could also diminish the extent of heart damage after a heart attack.
Walnuts can be considered a super food because they contain a full complement of vitamins, including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 and folic acid. They also contain a wealth of minerals, such as iron, magnesium, potassium, and zinc.
Walnuts contain Vitamin E#alpha, beta, delta and gamma-tocopherol, making it exceptionally high in antioxidants.
Nutritionists tell us that Omega-3 fatty acids are found in only a few plant food sources, yet are essential to a healthy body. In a 2,000-calorie diet, 3 tablespoons of walnuts will provide our daily requirement of these Omega-3 fatty acids.
Important Information:
Nut and seed butters are rich in protein,
fiber,
and essential fatty acids and can be used to
replace butter
or margarine
on bread
or toast. Artisana Walnut Butter is a good source of both Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.
From ancient times through the nineteenth century, herbalists prescribed the walnut - the bark, the roots, and the leaves as an astringent, a laxative, a purgative to induce vomiting, a styptic to stop bleeding, a vermifuge to expel worms or parasites, and a hepatic to tone the liver. Tonics and tinctures made from walnut served to induce sweating, cure diarrhea, soothe sore gums and skin diseases and relieve inflamed tonsils.
The nut itself was used to prevent weight gain, calm hysteria, eliminate morning sickness, and to strengthen one's constitution. The hulls were boiled and used to treat head and body lice, herpes, intestinal parasites and worms, skin diseases, and liver ailments. The leaf was reported to cure boils, eczema, hives, and ulcers.
