Due to its positive effects on nutrient content and human health, walnut (Juglans regia L.)

located in nuts is a special species which is increasingly important nowadays.The scientific studies

that continue for many years have been revealing that it is loaded with rich nutrient content positively

affecting human body of walnut. Due to high fat content this species is very nutritive. In particular, the

rich omega-3 essential fatty acids of walnut content have many benefits in terms of the health. Therefore,

many studies have been made on fat and fatty acids of walnut up to now. The aim of this article was

to evaluate the results of scientific studies about walnut consumption and its fatty acid content on the

benefits effects of human health.

Ceviz ve İçerdiği Yağ Asitlerinin İnsan Sağlığı Açısından Önemi Üzerine Yapılan Bazı Çalışmalar

Öz

Sert kabuklu meyveler içinde yer alan ceviz (Juglans regia L.), içerdiği besin değeri ve insan

sağlığı üzerindeki olumlu etkilerinden dolayı günümüzde önemi giderek artan önemli bir meyve türüdür.

Uzun yıllar süren bilimsel çalışmalar, cevizin insan vücudunu pozitif olarak etkileyen besin içerikleri

ile yüklenmiş olduğunu ortaya çıkarmıştır. Ceviz içeriğinde bulunan zengin omega-3 esasinyel yağ

asitlerinin sağlık açısından birçok faydaları tespit edilmiş ve bu yüzden, ceviz meyvesinin içerdiği

yağ ve yağ asitleri konusunda pek çok araştırma yapılmıştır. Bu makale ceviz tüketiminin ve içerdiği

yağ asitlerinin insan sağlığına faydaları konusunda yapılan bilimsel çalışma sonuçlarının derlenmesini

amaçlamaktadır.
