THE gnarled folds of a walnut mimic the appearance of a human brain - and provide a clue to the benefits.

They may also help head off dementia. An American study found that walnut extract broke down the protein-based plaques associated with Alzheimer’s disease.
Researchers at Tufts University in Boston found walnuts reversed some signs of brain ageing in rats.
