As the world of nutrition continues to evolve, September 30 has been dedicated to celebrating the remarkable walnut—an ingredient often hailed as a superfood.

The Nutritional Power of Walnuts
Walnuts, recognized for their outstanding balance of nutrients, have come into the spotlight, especially with the growing trend of health-conscious eating. Here are some noteworthy attributes that have contributed to their superfood status:
