Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2

Walnut, particularly the English walnut (Juglans regia), has a long history of use in traditional medicine systems to support reproductive health, especially male fertility. In various cultures, walnuts have been associated with enhancing sexual vitality and fertility, possibly due to their resemblance to the human testicle (a concept known as the "doctrine of signatures"). Traditional Persian and Ayurvedic medicine, for example, reference walnuts as a tonic for the reproductive system, credited with promoting sperm quality and sexual stamina.

From a scientific perspective, walnuts are rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids, antioxidants, and micronutrients such as selenium and zinc, which are important for reproductive health. Some modern studies, though limited, suggest that walnut consumption may improve sperm parameters, such as motility and morphology, in men. However, these findings are preliminary and based on small sample sizes. There is insufficient scientific evidence to conclusively state that walnuts directly support reproductive health beyond their general nutritional benefits. Overall, the use of walnuts for reproductive system support is primarily justified by traditional practices, with limited but emerging scientific interest.
