Other nuts combine only one or two of these features, but with walnuts you can get all three benefits in one go. The best part? Just one serving  – approximately 7 nuts – is all it takes. Sprinkled on salads, added to your morning oatmeal, ground with olive oil as a marinade or alone as a post-workout recovery snack.
