Health Benefits

Walnuts contain omega-3 fatty acids, which protect your body from the danger of high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Their usage is especially recommended for the pregnant women.

The immune system can be kept strong with a taste of honey. Two teaspoons of honey a day can fill you with a great measure of energy, necessary for accomplishing your tasks.

Sour cream is a good source of calcium, which keeps your bones strong and healthy. But be careful, because it contains milk fat. In concern for your health (diet food), you can use low-fat or light sour cream instead of the regular.
