A recent study led by Monash University has found that daily nut consumption is associated with a healthy lifespan.

The study involved 9,916 adults over 70 years old and found that individuals who reported daily nut consumption, regardless of type or form, lived longer without dementia or persistent disability than those who never or infrequently had nuts.
