What You Didn't Know About Avocado

We know it, eat it when we're in a Japanese restaurant, and for ladies you will find it in some of your cosmetics. But do you really know what "it" is ?

"It", is the valuable Alligator Pear or more commonly known as the Avocado fruit, and it IS valuable in the health benefits it carries and it's price. The Avocado tree is mostly grown in tropical areas, as it is a tropical fruit. Places such as; Spain, Brazil, the Caribbean, Portugal and a few more..

You think Bananas are a good source of Potassium ? Well think again, because Avocados provide you with 60% more Potassium than Bananas do !

Here some important benefits you HAVE TO know about Avocados:
  1. They're enriched in vitamins B, E and K.
  2. They decrease the LDL (Bad cholesterol) levels and increase HDL (useful cholesterol) levels in the human body.
  3. Scientists have proven that it acts as a toxin and helps prevent breast cancer and prostate diseases.
  4. Avocado is used to help people with sexual problems.
  5. Very beneficial for hair and skin disorder treatments.
  6. It's used to help people with digestive and circulatory problems.
  7. It is suggested for people who live in hot climates to eat avocado or drink avocado juice because we usually lose lots of water and minerals.
I personally love Avocado juice, especially when it's mixed with honey, or Banana milk, or mixed nuts on top of the Juice , Yummy ! For those who don't think they'll like it much, try to mix it with mango juice for the first time you try it. - It's just DELICIOUS !
