Key result
A 2-year walnut-supplemented diet demonstrated anti-inflammatory effects, providing novel mechanistic insight into its cardiovascular benefits beyond lipid lowering.
Why the study?
The anti-inflammatory effect of long-term walnut consumption and its impact on cardiovascular disease risk beyond lipid lowering was not well understood.
