So Why Do People Say Walnuts Are “Bad”?
Because of misinterpretation + overconsumption.
1. High Calories (Easy to Overeat)
Walnuts are calorie-dense:
- A small handful ≈ 180–200 kcal
👉 Eating too much can:
- Lead to excess calorie intake
- Affect weight goals
💡 Problem = quantity, not the walnut itself.
2. Digestive Sensitivity (For Some People)
Because they’re high in:
- Fiber
- Healthy fats
👉 Some people may feel:
- Bloating
- Mild digestive discomfort
Especially if eating large amounts suddenly.
