Walnuts- brain food

Walnuts, with their brain-like shape, are traditionally said as supporting the brain and nervous system. Their qualities are good for vata, but the astringent taste can contribute to constipation. Having 3–4 walnuts with a little jaggery helps the light and dry nature of vata,

Excess walnuts may aggravate pitta. 2–3 unroasted or soaked walnuts tend to be suitable for them.

They are less ideal for kapha due to their sweet, heavy, and oily qualities. They can still enjoy 2–3 roasted walnuts a couple of times per week.

Those who love Almonds…
Almonds are naturally sweet and a little heavy to digest. They create a grounding, nourishing effect on the body’s tissues. They’re especially supportive for Vata body types. As their digestion is bit irregular, almonds can cause symptoms like bloating and heaviness.
Too many almonds can aggravate pitta in the body because of its warming quality. Anyone already dealing with a Pitta imbalance should keep this in mind.
The strengthening and nourishing nature of almonds can add ‘too much’ to natural heaviness of Kapha bodies.
And of course, we shouldn’t forget the well-known aphrodisiac effect of almonds. They’re especially supportive for male fertility.
But don’t worry — we still can enjoy almonds in the right way.
Vata types do well with 5-6 soaked almonds a day
Pitta types can have 4-5 soaked or unroasted almonds
Kapha types can enjoy 4-5 roasted almonds on alternate days.
And remember, this is general guidance, not a strict rule.

Their effects on the body can vary depending on our constitution, internal balance, and the strength of our digestive fire. That’s why it’s soimportant to understand what we eat andhow it interacts with our own system.

Not all nuts suit everyone many are not ideal for Vata types, some can aggravate Pitta, and others may be too nourishing for Kapha bodies. Nuts have differentproperties when they are unroasted, roasted, or soaked. You can figure out the best way to eat them.
