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.

Decades of research links a daily handful of nuts with improved cardiovascular outcomes.

Dementia is one of Australia’s biggest health challenges.

While age is the greatest risk factor, growing evidence suggests that lifestyle - including what we eat - can play an important role in supporting brain health and reducing dementia risk. 🧠

In our newest episode of The Healthy Handful, we speak with Prof Catherine Itsiopoulos about the connection between diet, brain health and dementia prevention. 🎧

We unpack what the research tells us about healthy dietary patterns, the Mediterranean diet, and the role of foods including nuts, extra virgin olive oil, vegetables, legumes, whole grains and fish. 🌰🥦🫘

We hope you enjoy this evidence-based conversation, packed with practical insights for supporting brain health.

Why? Research shows that regularly eating nuts can help people manage diabetes and may reduce the risk of diabetes-related complications, including heart disease.

Nuts may also have a role in helping to prevent type 2 diabetes.

In fact, a large review study found that eating a handful of nuts four times a week, was linked with a 13% lower risk of developing type 2 diabetes, compared with not eating nuts. 🙌
