HEALTH & BENEFITS

While this snack is not particularly healthy, blue cheese contains protein, calcium, and vitamin B12. Walnuts are high in healthy fats and protein, and they have been linked to a reduced risk of heart disease and improved brain function. Parsley is a good source of vitamin K, which is necessary for blood clotting and bone health.
