Which dry fruits are rich in omega-3, and how can they support health? - #10410
I’ve been trying to increase my intake of omega-3 fatty acids and came across dry fruits as a potential source. I want to know which dry fruits are rich in omega-3 and how they contribute to overall health. One of the most recommended dry fruits is walnuts, which are said to have a high omega-3 content. How effective are they for improving heart health, reducing inflammation, and supporting brain function? Another option I’ve read about is flaxseeds, often grouped with dry fruits due to their similar nutritional value. Do these provide significant amounts of omega-3, and how do they compare to walnuts? I’m also curious about how to include these omega-3-rich dry fruits in a daily diet. Should they be eaten raw, roasted, or added to smoothies and salads for maximum benefits? Lastly, are there any precautions to keep in mind? Could consuming too many omega-3-rich dry fruits lead to digestive issues or weight gain due to their calorie content? If anyone has successfully included these dry fruits in their diet, I’d love to know your tips and the benefits you experienced.
