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.

Sustainability Matters

Our new report ‘Sustainability Matters’ offers an overview of the role of nuts within healthy and sustainable diets, and the nut industry’s sustainability initiatives.

Nut butters 🙌. The healthiest nut butter contains just one ingredient: nuts!

Pure nut butters (without added oil, sugar, or salt) are packed with all the nutrients you’ll find in whole nuts, such as plant protein, fibre, heart-healthy fats, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

What does a serve look like? Around 2 tablespoons 🥄🥄

Not just for enjoying with toast, try these ideas to include this wholesome spread in your day:
🌰 Spoon into the centre of a date for a nutritious snack on the go
🌰 Stir through your morning porridge
🌰 Dip veggie sticks or sliced apple into nut butter for an easy snack
🌰 Bring some ‘satay’ to a chicken and salad wrap with nut butter
🌰 Add to stir-fries or curries for a nutty depth of flavour
🌰 Blend into your favourite smoothie
🌰 Add to wet ingredients at the creaming stage of baking, such as for biscuits.
