Nut Consumption Associated with Lower Risk of Physical Function Impairment

A total of 3,289 participants from the ENRICA cohort were followed by two home visits to perform a physical examination and to obtain information on habitual diet. As a result, nut consumption was associated with lower risk of impaired agility and mobility in older men, and lower risk of impaired physical function in older women.
