Background: Compared with other common plant foods, walnuts (Juglans
regia) are consistently ranked among the highest in antioxidant capacity. In vitro,
walnut polyphenols inhibit plasma and LDL oxidation, while in animal models they
lower biomarkers of oxidative stress and raise antioxidant capacity. A limited number
of human feeding ... read moretrials indicate that walnuts improve some measures of antioxidant
status, but not others.
