Why protein matters

Protein is made up of building blocks called amino acids, which actively maintain muscles, bones, skin, and hair. Moreover, it’s not just for gym-goers, as protein supports strength, energy, and overall vitality, making it essential for everyone.

Adult women should consume 0.75 grams per kilogram of body weight each day, while women over 70 should increase that intake slightly to 0.94 grams per kilogram. Having a protein-rich ingredient that fits seamlessly into meals can make it much easier to meet these needs while enjoying food you love.

Walnut flour: natural protein powder

Walnuts themselves are nutritional powerhouses, bringing healthy fats, fibre, and antioxidants. After pressing the walnuts for oil, the remaining ‘press cake’ is used to create walnut flour.

Walnut flour isn’t just your regular kind of flour. In fact, the name “flour” is a little misleading, because in reality it’s so much more than that. Beyond its name, walnut flour is a versatile ingredient—low in carbs yet nutrient-dense—and it offers an effortless, food-first way to support healthy ageing.. This product offers a nutty boost of protein without the flavours and additives of most protein powders.

Walnut flour is perfect to:

• Bake: Muffins, pancakes, bread—delicious and subtly nutty.
• Blend: Add to smoothies for creaminess and protein. Tastes great with banana!
• Sprinkle: Over oatmeal, porridge, or muesli for texture and flavour.
• Cook: Coat roasted veggies, fish, or chicken for an easy flavour lift.

So by adding walnut flour to your regular meals and snacks, you’re getting a significant boost of protein.
