I've just recently started eating avocados for the first time in my life, and I've just this minute noticed that my nails look really shiney! has anyone else noticed great beauty effects from eating avos?

I love Avos especially in my salad or sushi. I find mine always turn too fast for me. My kids beg me to make my guacamole every time they see them. I haven't noticed any health benefits yet.

I've heard that avocados are good for you (the oil in avocados, like the oil in salmon). But I've been eating avocados for a while now so I can't tell what difference it's made! I just eat them because I love to eat them, they don't really have a strong taste, and it's a bonus that it's good for you beauty wise haha. I think I once did an avocado face mask a while back too. Really good for dry skin.

avocado is one of my main fave diet foods, it's a good fat (that burns other fat!) and it's SO FREAKING good for you.

I have never noticed that Maree but I probably haven't been eating enough of them to make a huge difference.

I do enjoy eating them and having them in salads and there was a time when I was having some in salads everyday. I can't say I saw a difference beauty wise though. Though my current fave skincare supplement does have a few mg of avocado oil in it.

I'm not sure how much. Do you know Maree? I just picked some up tonight to go in my daily salad.

I have a half one every morning (I'm on a calorie restricted diet so 1/2 is all I can manage). I'm surprised at the difference.

Yusssss I love avocado. It is packed full of goodness and helps give us great hair and skin too. I eat half one everyday. I love it squished on freyas with tomato and cracked pepper...mmmmmm.

If you need to ripen one then pop it in a brown paper bag with a banana :-)

Do they really take 9 years??? I don't think they'd grow down here, it's not warm enough. They're probably more expensive here too. At the moment you can get them for 3 for $2.50, but they're usually much more spensy than that - if you can get them at all.I'm making the most of it while I can :)

Yeah it's true Maree it's takes that long to grow. My mum grew a tree from seed.

I'd love a tree too but I don't think I want to wait 9 years for it :)

I'm the same Maree, I love the idea of growing fruit and vegetables but when it comes to it I'm not sure how long I could keep it up for. Nine years is too long haha

Advocado's are so good for you and a good fat not a bad one so dieters need to take this into account . Lovely on toast with or without tomato and pepper.
