Omega-3 in focus: growing relevance of plant-based nutrition
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that must come from the diet. California walnuts provide 2.7 g of plant-based omega-3 ALA per 30 g serving and are the only tree nut with a significant amount of ALA. A serving also delivers 4.6 g of protein and 2 g of fibre. Their mild flavour and versatile texture make them suitable for a wide range of snacks, meals and product applications. For recipes and application ideas, visit the Recipes section.
