Walnut, locally known as Akhrot, is one of the most nutritious and commonly consumed dry fruits in Pakistan, especially during the winter season. Recognized by its distinctive brain-like shape and hard shell, walnuts are packed with omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and protein — making them a superfood for brain and heart health.
In Pakistan, walnuts are not just a dry fruit — they’re a part of tradition, served with dried figs, almonds, and dates during gatherings and celebrations.
Walnuts are believed to have originated from Central Asia and the Himalayas, and they’ve been cultivated for thousands of years. Today, Pakistan is among the regional producers of organic walnuts, mainly grown in:
Gilgit-Baltistan
Swat & Dir (Khyber Pakhtunkhwa)
Azad Kashmir
Northern Punjab (Murree region)
These regions are known for producing wild and organic desi Akhrot — smaller in size but richer in oil and taste. Pakistan also imports premium quality walnuts from USA (California), Afghanistan, and Central Asian countries.
Walnuts are among the healthiest nuts in the world. A handful a day can make a big difference in your wellness. Here’s why:
Rich in DHA and omega-3 fatty acids that support brain development, memory, and focus.
Helps reduce bad cholesterol and improves blood vessel function.
Contains antioxidants and polyphenols that reduce inflammation.
Lowers blood sugar spikes and improves insulin sensitivity.
Packed with calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D.
Keeps you full longer due to its protein, fiber, and healthy fat content.
