However, it is also important to have a healthy diet, and not only focus on individual foods, the researchers said.
The study, which was funded by the California Mother Commission, said that the nuts are rich in healthy nutrients that explain the findings.
Earlier this year, Dr. Michael Greger, author, as not told to die, that only two handful of nuts a week eat can extend the lives of women per week running up to four hours.
Previous research has found walnuts can reduce the risk of heart attacks and diabetes, stress, disease prevention, breast and prostate cancer, the disease of cancer to Alzheimer's disease and reduce the rate of cholesterol.
Richer per week the risk, frail reduced in protective antioxidants than other nuts, consuming only six nuts once, the new study says published in the Journal of Nutrition.
And a study by the University of Michigan last year found that people who ate a small apple a day were less likely to nine percent of doctor visits several times a year.
Dr. Francine Grodstein, professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, said: "There is a lot of research that addresses the specific health conditions in aging, such as diabetes and heart disease, but less attention seeking on quality of life and the ability to independently keep aging.
"The simple message of this study is that a healthy diet, including foods such as nuts and other whole foods, can women with the ability to help key to fulfill daily tasks as they age, like or dress shopping during transport".

The connection between the problems of mobility habits and food was then measured.
Diet was assessed by the Healthy Eating Index alternative - a measure of the quality that integrates the forecasting of food nutrients and the risk of chronic diseases.
The researchers also found that participants in the study included only women, can not generally apply the results to humans.
Dr. Grodstein said, "to describe these results to the wealth of evidence for women, the many benefits of a healthy diet.
"More research to better understand how diet and lifestyle can help to keep our health and well - as we are now required age.
