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.

It’s Dementia Action Week, and we`re shining a spotlight on the MIND diet - a research-backed eating pattern that promotes brain health. 💡

The MIND diet combines elements of the Mediterranean and DASH diets, with a focus on whole foods rich in antioxidants, folate, omega-3 fats, flavonoids, and polyphenols.

Among the recommended foods are nuts 🌰🥜, at a handful at least 5 times a week.

A study published just last year found eating a handful of nuts daily was linked with a 12% lower risk of all-cause dementia, compared to not eating them at all. 🙌

Other key foods in the MIND diet include vegetables, and especially green leafy veggies (like spinach and kale), berries, legumes (like chickpeas or kidney beans), wholegrains, lean proteins (including fish and poultry), low-fat dairy foods, and olive oil.

Over the past 10+ years, multiple studies have consistently shown that nuts don’t affect body weight. Whether you replace a snack with nuts or simply add nuts to your day, there’s no change in body weight. 😍

Even studies focusing on certain groups, like people with type 2 diabetes, those on calorie-restrictive diets, or people with heart disease, all reported the same - nuts have no adverse effects on body weight. 🙌

So, enjoy a guilt-free handful (or two) of these tiny nutritional powerhouses! 🌰🥜
