Australian Nut Industry Council

The Australian Nut Industry Council (ANIC) is the peak industry body representing the interests of the Australian tree nut industry, including growers of almonds, macadamias, walnuts, and pecans. While primarily an agricultural organization, ANIC is deeply involved in the health and life sciences sector through its 'Nuts for Life' nutrition education program. This initiative funds and promotes clinical research into the health benefits of nuts, focusing on their role in managing cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and weight health. The council serves as a key link between the agricultural sector and health professionals, providing evidence-based resources to support the inclusion of nuts in healthy dietary patterns.
