Which nuts on X-Factor??

This website has a list of Omega 3 content of different nuts. Is the compatibility with X-factor based solely on Omega 3s? I eat a lot of almonds and peanuts. These have little/no omega 3, but are they ok?

Mm

Muscle milk also has canola oil, which has a good amount of omega 3, so is this ok?

Both are relatively high in Omega6. You're correct about the Walnuts. Walnuts contain a ridiculously high amount of Omega 3/6 (3/11 respectively).

I would eat both in moderation. I do know that the EFAs are somewhat destroyed during the process of making peanut butter.

all-in-all it's about how much you take in. Key word would be "MODERATION"

This same mentality goes for the canola oil in MM.

omega 6

so avoid omega 6 as well?

You don't need to avoid anything..... If I were you I'd eat as usual and simply not supplement with EFAs/fish oils/CLA/etc....

The rules on diet have become more and more lenient as time has passed.
