BENEFITS

Boosts Skin Health

When considering cold-pressed walnut oil for skin, it proves to be a rich source of all nutrients, fatty acids & antioxidants. The unsaturated fatty acid content contains omega 3 ALA & omega 6 LA, which can solve several skin issues, including psoriasis, wrinkles & dark circles. Owing to the rich content of vitamin B, E & antioxidants, walnut oil delays aging, thereby making your skin look younger and healthier.

Decreases Inflammation

The high content of polyunsaturated fats & omega-3 fatty acids aids in the cold-pressed oil aids in fighting chronic inflammation, linked to heart diseases, cancer, and several other health-related issues. A recent study reported that a diet high in ALA (one of the fatty acids in walnut oil) slows down the production of inflammatory proteins in the body. However, its anticancer, antioxidants, anti-inflammatory & cardioprotective properties are due to ellagitannins & other polyphenol compounds profile.

Lowers Blood Pressure

Walnut oil health benefits are prominent when lowering high blood pressure, which is one of the risk factors behind cardiac issues. Since, it contains ALA, LA & other polyphenol compounds, consuming it on regular basis results in improved blood vessel functioning, which in return help lower blood pressure. According to one study, a group of 45 overweight volunteers who were at risk of cardiovascular disease when consumed a diet rich in walnuts reported controlled blood pressure & improved heart functioning.

Improves Blood Sugar Control

Walnut oil is known to control blood sugar levels in Diabetes Mellitus type 2 patients. The relationship between consumption of walnut oil and controlled blood sugar level is due to its polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), alpha-linoleic acid (ALA), and antioxidants profile. Another recent investigation (1) with type-2 diabetics revealed that consuming 1tbsp of walnut oil for three months helped lower fasting blood sugar & hemoglobin A1c levels.

Lowers Bad Cholesterol Level

Walnut oil lowers bad cholesterol, which leads to an increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. The association between consumption of walnut oil and improved cholesterol level is due to its omega-3 fatty acids & other antioxidants content. An experiment conducted on 60 adults with a high level of triglycerides proved that consuming 3grams of walnut oil for 45 days significantly improves cholesterol levels.

Anti-Cancer Effects

Walnut oil is a good source of ellagitannins, omega-3 fatty acids, and other essential compounds that can help in reducing the risk of developing prostate cancer. Our body converts ellagitannin into urolithin that helps regulate the level of prostate-specific antigen – a risk factor for prostate cancer. Furthermore, it has been reported (2) that consumption of walnut oil reduces the risk of developing breast & colorectal cancer.
