The Gut Healing Effect of Walnuts

A new research article came out from the University of Connecticut on the use of walnuts for ulcerations and inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract specifically in Ulcerative Colitis patients.

The nourishing oils in walnuts were shown to be helpful for inflammation reduction and repairing the lining/ulcerations in the colon. The amount of walnuts needed to benefit from the gut healing effects is about 2 ounces per day for 2 months.
