Organic Walnut Pieces

Ingredients: Organic Walnut Pieces

Origin: Moldova

Walnuts are nutritional powerhouses.

Organic Walnut Pieces are a brilliant source of nutrition and a great cupboard staple for any health food fanatic.  Choosing pieces is an economical way to enjoy these tasty nuts but if you prefer the more traditional look we also sell organic walnut halves.

Walnuts are one of the oldest tree foods known to man and their use dates back to 7000 BC.  The ancient Greeks and Romans recorded the medicinal use of walnuts for a range of ailments.  Today we have the nutritional knowledge to know these nuts are a powerful health tool for any diet.

In the nutrition stakes walnuts win the nut contest hands down.  If you don't like the slightly bitter skins then buckle up, because this is where all their antioxidant power lies.  Walnuts are high in protein so they make a good addition to plant based diets and are rich in omega fats.  Walnuts are very nutrient rich and just one 28g serving is high in fibre, protein, manganese and copper.

Organic Walnuts Pieces are high in Fibre, Protein, Manganese and Copper (per 28g serving - roughly 7 Nuts)
