According to the American Heart Association, it is generally recommended to consume up to 1.5 ounces (approximately 30 grams) of walnuts per day. This is equivalent to about 12-14 walnut halves. 

Walnuts are a nutritious nut that provides healthy fats, protein, and antioxidants. However, consuming excessive amounts of walnuts can lead to digestive discomfort, such as bloating and diarrhea. Therefore, it is important to stick to the recommended serving size.
