Walnuts are a versatile treat in that they are a good source of magnesium, fiber, protein and are low in saturated fat. From the FDA's website: "Supportive but not conclusive research shows that eating 1.5 oz of walnuts per day, as part of a low saturated fat and low cholesterol diet, and not resulting in increased caloric intake may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease."
