Welcome to Nuts for Life

We’re Australia’s voice for the vital role nuts play in good health and nutrition. We inspire people to enjoy a healthy handful of nuts every day. An initiative of the Australian nut industry, we also work closely with health professionals, government, and other bodies to improve the nutritional reputation of nuts.

Enjoy a healthy handful of nuts every day.

At least $980 million could be saved in health care costs each year, if all Australians ate 30g of nuts a day.

An Australian research trial suggests whole orchard recycling has the potential to reduce the carbon footprint of almond orchards.

Did you know that a handful of mixed nuts costs around $1? That’s right – on par with other healthy snacks, like apples and bananas. 🙌

Five reasons to eat nuts daily:
🌰 Nutrition powerhouse – rich in protein, fibre, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants
🌰 Satisfying – reduce feelings of hunger, helping to keep weight in check
🌰 Heart healthy – lower the risk of heart disease
🌰 Tasty and versatile – good as a snack, but also a useful ingredient in cooking
🌰 Great value – with mixed nuts coming in at ~$1 a serve.

Money-saving tip 💡: Buy nuts in bulk when they’re on special and store them in an airtight container in the fridge (for up to 4 months) or freezer (for up to 6 months) for maximum freshness. 😍

Today is World Heart Day – a global reminder to prioritise heart health. ❤️

Decades of research shows that nuts are a powerful ally for your heart.

Did you know that eating a handful of nuts every day is linked with a 21% lower risk of cardiovascular disease? For people with heart disease, regular nut consumption can even reduce the risk of dying from it.

Why are nuts so heart healthy? 🤔
✔ Healthy fats
✔ Omega-3 fatty acids
✔ Fibre
✔ Antioxidants
✔ Phytosterols
✔ Arginine

Plus, nuts are naturally low in saturated fat and sodium, and contain no dietary cholesterol. 🙌

So, enjoy a healthy handful of nuts this World Heart Day (but really, every day)! Snack on them, or toss a handful into salads, cereal, smoothies, soups, or stir-fries. 🌰🥜
