by Larry Husten, (contributing medical news journalist), Forbes, 20 November, 2013
As described here, "Nut consumption has long been linked to healthy lifestyles. Now, a study in the New England Journal of Medicine extends the finding and demonstrates a strong association with improved mortality."
The study referred to here is:
Association of nut consumption with total and cause-specific mortality
by Ying Bao, M.D., et al, New England Journal of Medicine, 369:2001-2011, 21 November, 2013
An interesting feature on the NEJM website is this 3-minute video description of the study, which does an excellent job summarizing the study in nontechnical language.
