Nutrition Facts (Per 100g)
Why Akhrot Giri (Walnuts) Are Exceptional
Brain Health & Memory
The 9.1g omega-3 per 100g crosses the blood-brain barrier and reduces neuroinflammation. 12-week studies show walnuts improve memory retention, learning speed, and attention span in both young and older adults.
Deep Sleep & Relaxation
Walnuts are the only nut naturally rich in melatonin (3.5 ng/g). Eating 7 walnut halves 2-3 hours before bed increases total sleep duration by 30 minutes and deepens sleep quality measurably.
Heart Health & Cholesterol
Daily walnut consumption lowers LDL ("bad") cholesterol by 4-5% and reduces cardiovascular disease risk by 10% over 5 years. The omega-3 and polyphenols reduce arterial plaque buildup.
Inflammation & Immunity
Polyphenols in walnuts reduce systemic inflammation markers (CRP, TNF-α) by 30-40% within 4-6 weeks. Lower inflammation means stronger immunity, better recovery, and reduced disease risk.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do Chau Foods walnuts come from?▼
Our akhrot giri (walnut kernels) are sourced from California and Kashmir regions. California walnuts are larger and creamier, while Kashmir walnuts have a slightly deeper flavour. All are shelled on-site in Delhi and vacuum-packed for maximum freshness.
How much omega-3 is in walnuts?▼
Walnuts contain 9.1g of ALA (alpha-linolenic acid), the plant form of omega-3, per 100g. This is the highest omega-3 content among common nuts and is proven to improve brain function, reduce inflammation, and support heart health.
Can walnuts improve sleep quality?▼
Yes. Walnuts are naturally rich in melatonin, the hormone that regulates sleep-wake cycles. Eating 5-7 walnut halves (about 28g) 2-3 hours before bed improves sleep quality, increases REM sleep duration, and reduces sleep onset time.
How many walnuts should I eat daily?▼
The recommended daily intake is 28g (approximately 5-7 walnut halves or about 1 ounce). A 200g pack gives you 7+ servings. Eating 5-7 walnuts daily for 12 weeks has been shown in clinical studies to improve LDL cholesterol levels.
Are walnuts shell-free and safe?▼
Yes, our akhrot giri are 100% shell-free, cleaned, and inspected for fragments. Each kernel is vacuum-sealed within 24 hours of cracking to lock in freshness and prevent oxidation of the omega-3 oils.
How should I store walnuts to keep them fresh?▼
Store in an airtight container or the original vacuum-sealed pack in a cool, dry place. For longer shelf life (up to 6-8 months), refrigerate or freeze. Frozen walnuts maintain their taste and nutritional value perfectly.
